Perfect for fans of Code Name Verity and The Girl in the Blue Coat, Wait for Me, from debut author Caroline Leech, brings a fresh new voice, and a perfect blend of sweet romance and historical fiction, to a much-loved genre.
It’s 1945, and Lorna Anderson’s life on her father’s farm in Scotland consists of endless chores and rationing, knitting Red Cross scarves, and praying for an Allied victory. So when Paul Vogel, a German prisoner of war, is assigned as the new farmhand, Lorna is appalled. How can she possibly work alongside the enemy when her own brothers are risking their lives for their country?
But as Lorna reluctantly spends time with Paul, she feels herself changing. The more she learns about him―from his time fighting a war he doesn’t believe in, to his life back home in Germany―the more she sees the boy behind the soldier.
Soon Lorna is battling her own warring heart. Loving Paul could mean losing her family and the life she’s always known. With tensions rising all around them, Lorna must decide how much she’s willing to sacrifice before the end of the war determines their fate.
What will win: her duty to her country, or the calling of her heart?
- WWII Historical Romance: Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Scottish countryside in the final, uncertain days of World War II.
- Slow Burn Romance: Watch as suspicion and duty slowly give way to understanding and a powerful connection that neither Lorna nor Paul ever expected.
- Forced Proximity: He’s the new farmhand and the enemy. She has no choice but to work beside him, forcing them together when the world is determined to tear them apart.
- A Story of Sacrifice: With her brothers on the front lines, loving Paul could be the ultimate betrayal. Lorna must decide what—and who—she is willing to fight for.
