Impossible to put down!
Another excellent story from Sarah Sundin. I just love all of the WW2 stories
that Sarah has written and I consider myself blessed to receive a copy for
review. This one takes place in England just before and during D-day, the
invasion at Normandy. Dorothy and Wyatt are both working at headquarters to
plan for the invasion, and later Wyatt is on one of the Destroyers. What a
great insight into this time and place! So much went on that we would never know except for Sarah, and there is so much detail here.
Then of course the characters are anything but boring. Both families are a bit
of a mess, but the story is intricately woven and you get to love them all, British and American.
Another great hit for Christian Historical fiction! Can’t wait for the next in
the series!!!

From The Publisher:
In 1944, American naval officer Lt. Wyatt Paxton arrives in
London to prepare for the Allied invasion of France. He works closely with
Dorothy Fairfax, a "Wren" in the Women's Royal Naval Service. Dorothy
pieces together reconnaissance photographs with thousands of holiday snapshots
of France--including those of her own family's summer home--in order to create
accurate maps of Normandy. Maps that Wyatt will turn into naval bombardment
plans.
As the two spend concentrated time together in the pressure cooker of war, their deepening friendship threatens to turn to love. Dorothy must resist its pull. Her bereaved father depends on her, and her heart already belongs to another man. Wyatt too has much to lose. The closer he gets to Dorothy, the more he fears his efforts to win the war will destroy everything she has ever loved.
The tense days leading up to the monumental D-Day landing blaze to life under Sarah Sundin's practiced pen with this powerful new series.
