Excerpt from the Book:
"I looked at him 'You drive me crazy, things could have got out of hand then' 'Well Mum is always accusing me of doing 'it' with you so why don't we' I have never wanted something so much to be with you but not this way, I want it to be right, when we get married, you deserve me to do the right and proper thing and that's what I'm going to do'.

I love him more for that, I knew he was right, after all I was under age, Mum would not hesitate to have him arrested that would be the end of us, his army career, he would be sent back to America and I would never see him again."
