With Every Letter – review

I thoroughly enjoyed Sarah Sundin’s Wings of Glory trilogy about brothers who fought in World War II. I was very excited when I heard about her new series, Wings of the Nightingale, featuring World War II nurses. I was even more excited when I had the chance to review the first one: With Every Letter. And it didn’t disappoint!

You remember the movie You’ve Got Mail? It’s one of my favorites, about “secret” pen pals who know each other in real life but don’t know that’s who they are writing to. With Every Letter has the same premise.

Here’s the publisher’s synopsis:

Lt. Mellie Blake is looking forward to beginning her training as a flight nurse. She is not looking forward to writing a letter to a man she’s never met–even if it is anonymous and part of a morale-building program. Lt. Tom MacGilliver, an officer stationed in North Africa, welcomes the idea of an anonymous correspondence–he’s been trying to escape his infamous name for years.
As their letters crisscross the Atlantic, Tom and Mellie develop a unique friendship despite not knowing the other’s true identity. When both are transferred to Algeria, the two are poised to meet face-to-face for the first time. Will they overcome their fears and reveal who they are, or will their future be held hostage by their pasts?
Combining a flair for romance with excellent research and attention to detail, Sarah Sundin vividly brings to life the perilous challenges of WWII aviation, nursing–and true love.

The novel is well-written, well-researched, and a great story. Sarah Sundin has become one of my all-time favorite authors. I can’t wait for her next book! I highly recommend this title and will be giving it 5 stars on Amazon.
