My rating: 💛💛💛
Rating 3.5
This story started out with an action scene which created feelings of loss, fear and danger and set the expectation for the rest of the book. Though there was a lot of dangerous events, that suspense feeling I was expected and wanted did not come across.
What I did appreciate about this book was the different focus on the Nazi soldier, Franz, who did not agree with what was happening, felt forced to do as required, and in little ways, did what he could to help his "enemies".
The love triangle was different, Rose being caught between two soldiers, one her enemy and one her ally.
There was a few things mentioned briefly which did not provide a conclusion, which makes me wonder why it was mentioned.
Though I expected a bit more of a suspense feel, I did enjoy this WW2 story.

About the author:
Fascinated by history and in love with creating fiction, Angela K Couch has been lost in writing novels most
of her life. As a passionate believer in Christ, she can't help her faith from permeating the stories she tells. Often her martial arts training, love of horses, and appreciation for good romance sneaks in there as well.
