Synopsis

A mischievous light filled her gaze. “What do you think you’re doing, Specialist Chance? Stealing a kiss?” He studied her sweet lips and liked the idea. A heartwarming WWII historical from award-winning author Cara Putman: Anna Goodman’s mother is dead, her father has given up on life, and her brother is missing in action in World War II. Anna’s dreams for the future are held captive by the responsibilities the war and life have thrust upon her. She’s desperate to hold the farm together while working at a war factory in nearby Kearney. She can’t do it alone. She must interact daily with Specialist Sid Chance, the cocky know-it-all who oversees the German prisoners who work on her family farm - prisoners that are a constant reminder of her father’s harrowing experience in World War I. As Sid gets to know the determined Anna, he must balance her mistrust against his desire to help farmers. With so many able-bodied men deployed around the world, the prisoners’ labor is essential to save local farms from ruin. He must also battle against prejudice from men like Anna’s father, who can’t stand their presence or the memories they force him to relive. Sid wants to protect Anna; if she’d only let him. Anna’s as skittish as a colt, but he’s determined to win her heart. When the farm’s future is at risk, Anna must decide whether she can trust Sid with her heart...and her future. Other books in this series:Canteen DreamsSandhill DreamsA Promise KeptA Promise BornA Promise Forged

3.5 stars Having read and enjoyed the first two books in this series, I was excited to read this one. I liked Anna and her determination to do everything she could to keep the farm going, help her father, and still do her work for the war. Sid was the kind of guy you’d want helping you. I liked his re......more

I enjoyed this book and this series! We actually drove through some of the areas discussed in this series on our trip across country this Fall and it was great to see one of the bases even as we passed through without stopping. Being a military family, I’m always enthralled with war time romance. Th......more
