Synopsis:
In a time of peril, can they find the courage to confront their fears and embrace a love that lasts?
When her husband becomes a casualty of the war in the Pacific, Helen Carlisle throws herself into volunteering for the war effort to conceal her feelings. But keeping up appearances as the grieving widow of a hometown hero is taking its toll. Soon something is going to give.
Lt. Raymond Novak prefers the pulpit to the cockpit. His stateside job training B-17 pilots allows him the luxury of a personal life–and a convenient excuse to ignore his deepest fear. When the beautiful Helen catches his eye and captures his heart, he is determined to win her hand.
But when Ray and Helen are called upon to step out in faith and put their reputations and their lives on the line, can they meet the challenges that face them? And can their young love survive until blue skies return?
Filled with drama, daring, and all the romance of the WWII era,Blue Skies Tomorrow is the captivating final book in the popular Wings of Glory series.
My Review:
A fantastic conclusion to a phenomenal World War II series. I hated to this one end. It was like saying goodbye to my best friend. Sarah Sundin has brought back wonderful characters, her powerful messages into this final story.
I truly loved Ray and Helen’s story. I loved going back to that special place in time. Both of these amazingly chiseled characters are by far my favorite of the Wings Of Glory family. Their story is, to mean, the most powerful and meaningful of them all.
Helen, a widow, raising her young son Jay Jay, is dealing with the issues of a not so happy marriage, and secrets better left alone. Ray is the eldest Novak brother fighter pilot, and his only true dream is to be a preacher, and is a friend since child hood to Helen.
I loved seeing the plot spread wide open before me. When Ray takes a desk job back home, he sees Helen in a whole new light. He knows that he has a new dream to look forward to, especially when he is sent overseas.
The rollercoaster of emotions that Ms. Sundin sends her readers on is breathtaking. She incorporates intensity, with lightness and brings forth a powerfully strong message from God in faith, love and honor. I highly, highly recommend this as a 5 Book worthy novel and conclusion to the awesome Wings Of Glory series and hope that this isn’t the last of these kinds of novels from this talented lady!
