MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Second book in Sundin’s Wings of the Nightingale<\/strong><\/em> series, “On Distant Shores” is related from the perspective of World War 2 flight nurse Georgie Taylor and pharmacist John “Hutch” Hutchinson who become friends after meeting during their military assignments in Italy. If one has read the first novel in this series, some of the situations may seem familiar but I loved reading about the same events from a different viewpoint.<\/p>\n

Like the first book of the series, “On Distant Shores” includes wonderful character development and riveting wartime scenes that fully illustrate the dangers experienced by all those who served during that time. The author tempered the horrors of war with several lighthearted scenes, bits of humor inserted at just the right place, and of course a special romance. I loved the way Georgie and Hutch encouraged each other with scripture and how the Lord brought it back to their minds just when they needed it the most.<\/p>\n

I have enjoyed each and every one of Sarah Sundin’s novels and “On Distant Shores” was no exception. I did not consider myself a fan of wartime novels but Sarah’s are so well written with realistic scenarios and natural human emotion that they go beyond the typical wartime tale. I highly recommend “On Distant Shores” as well as any of Sarah’s other novels.<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"On-Distant-Shores\"Caught between the war raging around them and the battles within, two souls long for peace\u2014and a love that remains true. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Lt. Georgiana Taylor has everything she could want. A boyfriend back home, a loving family, and a challenging job as a flight nurse. But in July 1943, Georgie\u2019s cozy life gets more complicated when she meets pharmacist Sgt. John Hutchinson.<\/p>\n

Hutch resents the lack of respect he gets as a noncommissioned serviceman and hates how the war keeps him from his fianc\u00e9e. While Georgie and Hutch share a love of the starry night skies over Sicily, their lives back home are falling apart. Can they weather the hurt and betrayal? Or will the pressures of war destroy the fragile connection they\u2019ve made?<\/p>\n

With her signature attention to detail and her talent for bringing characters together, Sarah Sundin weaves an exciting tale of emotion, action, and romance that will leave you wanting more.<\/p>\n
