A Memory Between Us by Sarah Sundin

Reading Level: Adult
(4 out of 5)


A Memory Between Us is the second book in the Wings of Glory series. This book revolves around Major Jack Novak and Lieutenant Ruth Doherty. Jack met Ruth in the first book when she was a nurse to Jack's brother Walt. In the start of this book Jack is wounded and winds up in Ruth's hospital. He is smitten with her from the start but he soon finds out that she is dedicated to her work and doesn't date. Jack thinks no problem and feels like he can persuade her into loving him. The historical aspect of this novel is fascinating. She states on her web page in the FAQ's that the places were all real and even some of the people were real people. Most of the dates are real time as well. It was exciting reading about D-Day and about flight nursing. I think I would rather be in a hospital away from the fighting but the nurses who risked their own lives pulling out our soldiers were incredible. The writing is just incredible and I can't wait for book three.
