May 1943, Lincolnshire, England
Grace Deroy’s family estate is requisitioned by the Air Ministry, so she takes a job in the new cartography facility to protect what used to be her home, a small cog in the vast machinery of war.
When the new American intelligence officer Jack Marsden arrives, she has no idea he’s been sent to spy on her. Jack has little experience with espionage, but his real task is simple enough: get close to Grace and find out whether she’s leaking Air Ministry secrets to the enemy. It should be a dream assignment, but Jack finds himself tongue tied and awkward every time he comes in contact with his target––a sure sign he’s falling in love.
Grace isn’t the Nazi sympathizer that MI5 suspects, but that doesn’t mean she’s got nothing to hide. When compromising stories about her appear in the press, Grace fears someone she trusts––someone working in her own home––is trying to expose her.
Can she find out who before all the shameful secrets from her past are laid bare?
And can she trust this quiet new American to help her work out who the real traitor is?
“Delightfully unputdownable! The only problem with these books is I can't seem to stop reading them until they're finished... Grace's story drew me in and I was so stirred by her courage and honesty. Can't wait to read the next one!”

“Book 2 of On Victory’s Wings series is full of adventure, intrigue, history, romance, and interesting characters. Steeped in history and research, the author has given us an exciting story that will keep you turning pages wanting to know what happens next. Of course there is a villain, but it might not be whom you suspect. The romance that blooms between our hero and heroine is sweet and gentle and full of secrets and lies. Faith and forgiveness and hope weave through the pages. I highly recommend this book and am excitedly awaiting book 3.”
