About this listen
At the height of World War II, three women must come together to fight for freedom, for the men they love - and for each other.
When Hazel is given the chance to parachute into Nazi-occupied France, she seizes the opportunity to do more for the British war effort than file paperwork. Alongside her childhood friend, French-born Rose, she quickly rises up the ranks of the freedom fighters. For Rose, the Resistance is a link to her late husband, and a way to move forward without him. What starts out as helping downed airmen becomes a bigger cause when they meet Sophia, a German escapee and fierce critic of Hitler who is wanted by the Gestapo. Together the three women form a bond that will last a lifetime.
But amid the turmoil and tragedy of warfare, all three risk losing everything - and everyone - they hold dear. Will their united front be strong enough to see them through?

Ava thought her job as a librarian at the Library of Congress would mean a quiet, routine existence. But an unexpected offer from the US military has brought her to Lisbon with a new mission: posing as a librarian while working undercover as a spy gathering intelligence. Meanwhile, in occupied France, Elaine has begun an apprenticeship at a printing press run by members of the Resistance. It’s a job usually reserved for men, but in the war, those rules have been forgotten. Yet she knows that the Nazis are searching for the press and its printer in order to silence them.

Story
As the war begins, Hanna Rombauer, a young German woman, is sent to live with her aunt and uncle after her mother’s death. Thrown into a life of luxury she never expected, Hanna soon finds herself unwillingly matched with an SS officer twenty years her senior. The independence that her mother lovingly fostered in her is considered highly inappropriate as the future wife of an up-and-coming officer and she is sent to a “bride school.” There, in a posh villa on the outskirts of town, Hanna is taught how to be a “proper” German wife.

Story
For generations, girls known as Spinsters have been called by Arras' Manipulation Services to work the looms and control what people eat, where they live, how many children they have, and even when they die. Gifted with the unusual ability to weave time with matter, 16-year-old Adelice Lewys is exactly what the Guild is looking for, and in the world of Arras, being chosen as a Spinster is everything a girl could want. It means privilege, eternal beauty, and being something other than a secretary. But Adelice isn’t interested.

Before the fallout, scientists had worked on creating an anti-radiation vaccine (ARV).

Hearts of Resistance
This author had my strong attention right from the beginning of the book. The main characters were strong women. One admired their character and the way they were portrayed. Though I wanted to know the end of their stories I hated for the book to end. It leaves one thinking about these women and the trials of helping with the Resistance in World War II for a long time I believe.

Worth it!
I always know I like a book if I miss it when I’m not reading/listening - and that was the case here! I love heroine(s) themes and am a sucker for feel-good moments and this has both. The writing becomes a bit redundant, which was my major hiccup in the story.
I never leave bad reviews (but am trying to write more reviews, as they are so helpful in making my purchasing choices) and hate saying this, but the narration wasn’t my favorite. I almost gave up in the beginning because of the dramatics. Yes, it’s war and that IS dramatic, but its all the time, annoying and made the story almost hard to follow (draws it out unnecessarily). That said, she does a great job with accents, it’s easy to keep track of the characters and her voice IS pretty.
Overall, it’s enjoyable, exciting and touching - totally worth it!

Maybe because I was born during the war in the US, this book touched me. The characters were so real, as were the events. I am sure I would never be that brave! Most of the people that served are gone, my Davidoff to all!

Gripping, Amazing!
Truly an amazing story. It is frightening that the US refuses to understand that they are heading straight into another situation just like this!

Fiction - but based on real life stories
I really had a hard time putting this book down. Three courageous young women in a time when women were to be wives and mothers, went to war. The pace was fast and the tension never let up as you lived the fear and terror of waiting for the Gestapo at the door. The book felt very realistic, frightening and gritty. The characters were very real and you really learned to care for them even as the war changed and hardened them. The ending was a bit romanticised but overall I loved this book. It was a nice change from most women's literature and I think men would appreciate it too.
Elizabeth Knowelden was outstanding with the delivery of the story
