A mother's love. A new love. As the Pacific War looms ever closer to Australia, will waiting and wondering break their hearts? September 1939. Sophie Parker nursed wounded soldiers in France during the Great War. She knows the physical and mental devastation war can wreak on hearts, minds, and bodies. When WWII breaks out, and Australia is called to join the effort, Sophie knows all too well what her sons will face when they enlist to fly and fight. Marianne Ryan grew up in a French town battered by the Germans during the Great War. But while she spends WWII in Sydney, far from her home and family in occupied France, the new love she never expected to find could break her heart beyond repair. With the war looming ever closer to Australia, Sophie and Marianne must watch and wait as the Japanese cut a swath through the Pacific. Can the two women be as courageous as the men they love? As they are in all wars, the women who wait at home must be the bravest soldiers. The Bravest Soldiers, A WWII Historical Novel of Romance, Love, and Longing (Book 2 in The Immense Sky Saga), is the next chapter in the Parker - Ryan family story begun in Dare Not Tell, but can be read as a standalone.
Autorenporträt
Do you love complex couples in historical fiction? Individuals who are strong and independent on their own, but who are even better together in a loving relationship? My favorites are Harriet Vane and Lord Peter Wimsey and Helena Justina and Marcus Didius Falco. Thanks to the inspiration of those incredible characters, I've done my best to create my own complex couples-American, Australian, and French-in times and settings that are challenging and fascinating. I'm a former technical writer who writes about love, loss, secrets, and redemption during challenging historical times. I became enthralled by stories of Americans and Australians working and fighting together in WWI France and WWII Australia and have published two novels, Dare Not Tell and The Bravest Soldiers, which feature Sophie and Joe Parker as main characters. My short story "Ripples In a Pond" in Feisty Deeds: Historical Fictions of Daring Women, is a companion piece to my novels. When I'm not writing Sophie and Joe's next chapter or dreaming up travel plans for fun and research, I wrangle the rescue cocker spaniels that I and my husband have welcomed into our home and hearts. In between writing, I format other authors' books for publication as well as my own books. I'd love to format your paperback and epub! Send me an email or message me on Instgram or Facebook.I'm a member of the Historical Novel Society, the Women's Fiction Writers Association, and The Authors Guild.P.S. I hope you love reading my books as much as I've loved writing them!
