If you know me at all, you know that I love a good Historical Fiction...and if you throw in a little bit of Romance, I'm SO THERE! Today's title in the spotlight, currently on tour with Rachel's Random Resources, has all that and then some. It gives us a strong female protagonist, stalwart in principles, yet swayed by love, and thrown into a battle for not only her heart, but the life of her soon to be born child. Sound exciting? I know, right?! It's definitely on my TBR, and I think you'll be adding it to yours as well by post's end. Go ahead, take a closer look...

About the book...
A forbidden romance in occupied Norway…
Narvik, 1940. After Laila awakens to the sight of warships in the fjord, it isn't long before she turns resistor to the brutal Nazi regime. She is horrified when local girls begin affairs with enemy soldiers, yet against her own principles, she finds herself falling in love with German soldier, Josef.
Josef is not like the others. He becomes involved in helping her and the locals with resistance activities, risking his life on more than one occasion.
But then Laila finds out she is pregnant. With Josef sent to the Russian front, and Laila cast out by her family, she turns to a home for women which promises to care for her and her unborn child. But instead, she finds herself caught in a system of evil far beyond what she thought possible…

About the author...

I am from London but now live in Hamburg, Germany with my husband and daughter. I gave English lessons to retired Germans for twenty years and became intrigued by many of their wartime stories. My mother comes from Linz, Austria and I spent my summer holidays there for years which inspired my next novel. I have always loved reading and writing, and now finally have the time to devote to writing.
