Produktbeschreibung

"A gripping, evocative read that will set your heart to soaring into the turbulent skies of WWII" from the New York Times-bestselling author (Debbie Macomber).

Morgan Glennon's destiny points straight up into Oklahoma's clear, blue sky. It's been that way since he was four years old, imagining the famous flier father he's never met. Morgan leaves college to enlist as a Navy pilot, and his whole world suddenly changes when America goes to war. Watching his friends fall in battle, robs Morgan of the joy he always felt in the air. It will take one very unusual woman to help him get it back . . .

Georgia Jean Carter learned early never to rely on a man for anything but trouble. Airplanes are different: they take a girl places most boyfriends can't. Remarkably, the war makes it possible for Georgia to do her part as a pilot. Flying with the WASPs brings a special sense of belonging-yet there's something missing that Georgia doesn't recognize until a brief encounter sets her dreaming about a young flyboy she barely knows . . .

"An uplifting and spirit-nurturing read." -Fresh Fiction

"Bostwick does an excellent job of telling the story of the WASP." -Library Journal

"A one-of-a-kind find, the sort of book that completely transports you to another place in time." -RT Book Reviews

"[A] solid WWII era romance . . . Bostwick fills out their destinies satisfyingly and delivers tempting brushes with intimacy at all the right moments before the end-of-war denouement." -Publishers Weekly
