Are there any GOOD WW2 romances out there? I have one I've been trying to read off and on for months now and just can't get into it - its set in WW2 in Paris. I'd love to read a good one! Sherri |

This reminded me that I'd read a pretty good WW2 romance recently- couldn't remember the name so I had to visit my bookshelf to find it again! It's called "Sentimental Journey" by Jill Barnett ISBN 9780671035341 I thought it was quite good- lots of action, step above a typical romance. Happy reading!

Blood Moon Over Britain. Can't remember author's name right now. I have't read it but it's on my reminder list. I think it's part of a series. |

How about Dorothy Garlock's "After the Parade". |

Thanks for the suggestions! Sherri |

Many of the D.E. Stevenson books were written in the 30s and 40s and feature characters in the service or impacted by the war. I hate to have more people trying to get the ones I'm missing, but if you really want this setting, you will enjoy her beautiful writing. The English Air is set just before the war, and...oh, I give up; just use this link for more information on her books. On this page, click on Books, then, for even more information on specific time periods, click on the neverending spreadsheet. Her writing if just beautiful, but do not expect the racy romances of today!
