This is the first book in a new series about three brothers:
one in the Navy, one in the Army Air Corp and one a Ranger. This first book is about Wyatt, who is part
of the Navy.
Dorothy is part of the Women’s Royal Naval Service, helping
prepare for D-day. Her childhood crush
walks back into her life, and she’s determined to be the woman she knows he
wants. Even though she’ll have to change
just about everything about herself to be that person, she’s determined to do
what it takes to win his affections.
Wyatt is an American on the run, from his past and his
mistakes. After a tragic accident, he
disappeared from his family’s life and took his brother’s college money with
him. Feeling like he’ll never be
forgiven, he throws himself into his work.
When he meets Dorothy, she convinces him that he should reach out to his
family.
Both characters are dealing with home troubles. Wyatt refuses to contact his family until
he’s collected enough money to repay his brother, and Dorothy is worried about
her father, even though the man doesn’t seem to notice, or appreciate, her
presence. Wyatt is truthful about his
past and becomes a friend to Dorothy and her father, but Wyatt is attracted to
her. Unfortunately, she’s only got eyes
for that childhood crush.
As usual, Sundin seamlessly adds well-researched details to
an engaging story. I read this in two
days, it was so enjoyable. And I have to
say, I always love when there’s a shout out to the B-26 Marauder. My grandfather flew one of those, and it
seems to be an overlooked aircraft in most WWII novels I read.
On the horizon (literally), Adler’s story will be told in
The Sky Above Us in 2019. Then, Clay’s
follows in The Land Beneath Us in 2020.
I can’t wait! Great Book!

NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
