A war torn landscape and a romance that has every single odd stacked against it. To think such a romance could come about in the midst of air raids, explosions, threats against your life and running away from the army that wants to imprison you, is near to impossible to believe. But it happens in this book and I think it probably happened many times in that real life time. Because nothing makes you think more about the days you have left then when you can see the end of time dangling before you.

I could not imagine living in Germany during WWII. I cannot imagine the courage it must have taken to wake up every day and the trust to fall asleep at night. The danger of the times is never far from the readers thoughts and far from a small threat to the characters.

I did think there was something lacking within the story to keep my full attention. I think more than anything I wanted to see something deeper from the characters. To truly explore who they were and I think the war overshadowed that. I wanted to know them, more than I wanted a description of the events or setting.

But all in all, the book gives a good glimpse into the
times, what that must have been like, and the struggles that were all too real.

This review is my honest opinion. Thanks to the publishers through Thomas Nelson BookLook for my copy to review.
