NAMESAKE is a powerful, true-to-life love story set during World War II. It follows the life of John and Janis—two young souls who find each other just as the war begins to escalate. What starts as a chance meeting quickly turns into a whirlwind romance. However, as war calls John to duty, their time together is cut short, and Janis is left to carry both his child and the weight of the unknown.

Based on real events and written by their granddaughter, this story is more than historical fiction. It’s a personal tribute to a love that was both beautiful and heartbreaking. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to love deeply and lose suddenly, this book is a must-pick.
