Hello to a new favourite author! After reading this book, I definitely have to get more from Sundin. This was so close to flawless that I may have to bring my rating up to a whole 5-stars.

The research and thought that went into this book is just impeccable. Her characters are extremely layered and I am invested in the Paxton boys’ stories. I don’t know what all to say that isn’t just me gushing about how great this book is. You get a great deal of insight into the WRNS as well as Wyatt’s part in the Navy and how their inner workings played at Normandy.

I loved Dorothy’s character and her gumption and I loved Wyatt’s inner turmoil but utter kindness. There were so many elements to this story that I feel could have gone poorly or seemed disjointed if written by someone else but Sundin did masterful work bringing it all together.

I think the only parts that I felt I breezed by was some of the technical aspects during Wyatt’s role. I know how much research would have gone into it and adding it is a great way to show that knowledge but I found it difficult to follow and orient myself with. I find that is a personal thing of mine that happens most times technical jargon and whatnot is brought into a story, but I appreciate it all the same.

It is great to know that Sundin has a solid backlist of titles that I can delve into as well as 2 other books in this particular series so I do not fear being out of content any time soon.
