About this listen

Numbed by grief and harboring shameful secrets, Lt. Adler Paxton ships to England with the US 357th Fighter Group in 1943. Determined to become an ace pilot, Adler battles the German Luftwaffe in treacherous dogfights in the skies over France as the Allies struggle for control of the air before the D-day invasion.

Violet Lindstrom wanted to be a missionary, but for now she serves in the American Red Cross, where she arranges entertainment for the men of the 357th in the Aeroclub on base and sets up programs for local children. Drawn to the mysterious Adler, she enlists his help with her work and urges him to reconnect with his family after a long estrangement.

Despite himself, Adler finds his defenses crumbling when it comes to Violet. But D-day draws near. And secrets can't stay buried forever.

Best-selling author Sarah Sundin returns listeners to the shores of Normandy, this time in the air, as the second Paxton brother prepares to face the past - and the most fearsome battle of his life.

Absolutely Lovely!

This book managed to be both lovely and intriguing. Unexpectedly, my heart has been stirred to love my husband of 40 years that much more. I have no doubt that I’ll listen to it again!!

Adler’s Story

Great sequel to Wyatt’s story. Similar in each brother’s struggle with past sins and redemption. There can be multiple sides to every story and side two was a doozy! Can’t wait to read Clay’s story next.

Narrator does a great job with the different accents. I absolutely love Adler’s Texas drawl.

Stupendous!

How refreshing. A Christian romance. For adults. Realistic. Humanity and redemption. Beauty for ashes. I completely connected to the characters, and the story was very immersive. Fast paced, too. The narration was also well done. Pleasant voice with varying intonation and accents when appropriate. Definitely worth a listen!

My Musings

What a wonderful novel with such an amazing message of God’s love and grace. It’s a beautiful love story as well. The characters spoke to me. While we humans are never enough, God is always enough. A very grateful reader and listener!

The historical fiction intertwining WWIi and an excellent storyline. Suspense and reality merge

This historical fiction, intertwined with World War II, D-Day and an excellent storyline of a family of three estranged brothers in three branches of the service captured my mind, heart and soul. It demonstrates significant Christian principles in interpersonal broken family relationships and the journeys to maturity. The romances like wise contribute realistically to our humaneness and the extraordinary work of Christ in our souls and relationships.
