Roger Cooper had pasts that left them feeling inadequate and undeserving. Roger had found some peace through his fairly new faith but guilt over his past caused him to avoid women as much as possible. On the other hand, Kay&#8217;s experiences had left her angry at God and with a need to prove herself by teasing men. Their friendship was unexpected but developed into a relationship that eventually set them both free from their past.<\/p>\n<p>I have so enjoyed this entire series and loved reading about each of the &#8220;Nightingales&#8221; and their experiences as flight nurses during World War 2. Sundin&#8217;s character development is exceptional and lends an extra depth to her plots. I like the way she weaves all aspects of life during that era into her stories &#8211; from the hum drum daily routine, to dangerous missions both in the air and on the battlefield, to fun and sometimes humorous scenes, and of course some excellent romantic vignettes. Sarah also manages to include plenty of the gospel message into the plot in a natural way as her characters wrestle with their faith or in some cases embrace the gospel for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>For wartime novels set during the Second World War, Sarah Sundin is an author not to be missed. I always look forward to her next one. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10857\" title=\"divider2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png 317w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2-150x28.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>This book was provided for review by<br \/>\nRevell, a division of Baker Publishing Group.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-17397 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/InPerfectTime.jpg\" alt=\"In Perfect Time\" width=\"285\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/InPerfectTime.jpg 285w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/InPerfectTime-97x150.jpg 97w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/InPerfectTime-150x231.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 285px) 100vw, 285px\" \/>Two hearts are about to learn the rhythm of love<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bold, sophisticated, and coy, Army Air Force flight nurse Lt.
