Emotional. Mysterious. Heartbreaking.
Ruth was no stranger to heartache, but in her attempt to overcome the past, she conquered unimatinable obstacles, all while swinging high as a part time trapeze artist, strolling as a wing walker, an falling in love with the handsome pilot of a small biplane. She was convinced that he was the answer to her happily ever after. They spent endless hours and days together as they fell deeper in love every day. Destined to get married, the two planned to elope, only to be stopped by his family. Broken hearted, Ruth was determined to live her life without his love, but some things have a way of becoming a perfect circle.
Their story would've remained a mystery forever had it not been for Ruth's special bond with one curious granddaughter many decades later.
INSPIRED BY A TRUE HISTORICAL ROMANCE.
A brilliant piece of War fiction, this World War I and World War II drama is sure to bring tears to your eyes.
--Amber Montgomery, Virginia Press Reading this book made me wish I knew my own grandmother better. The characters are brilliantly developed and it felt like I was living through Prohibition and the Great Depression myself.
--V. Lawrence, Varathane Books I've never experienced biographical fiction in such a light. I couldn't wait to find out what happened.
--Jonathan Smithers, LAlien Magazine. Historical Great Depression writing will never be the same for me after this. Adriana Trigiani would be proud.
--Annie Napolitanito There's a heartbreaking shortage of emotional, clean historical romance books out there these days, but I just found my new favorite. I only wish I could read it for the first time again. It really is among one of the best new romance ebooks I've found in recent years.
--E. Robinson, Grand Reviews
