Thoroughly Amazing
Sarah Sundin did not disappoint in her final book of the Sunrise at Normandy series. Clay and Leah's story is beautiful, heartbreaking, and lovable. While I loved every part of the story, it was a joy to listen to letters and telegrams between Leah and Clay, the Paxton parents' love for Leah, and the transformation and growth of Leah and Clay throughout the story. The historical, medical, and military detail made this book such an educational and enlightening read. Sarah Zimmerman's narration is second to none. I cannot stop listening and am on my third time through the book two days after it was published.

Love Sarah Sundin
I have read or listened to just about all her books and enjoyed every single one of them. I love romantic stories with realistic things happening, and I love the WWII time frame so I really appreciate all the details she puts in her books so you can get a good idea of what things were like back then. Also, Sarah Zimmerman’s performances are always outstanding. Wonderful, enjoyable, clean entertainment.

Loved the 3rd book in the trilogy!
I was in love with the characters in this book within the first couple of chapters Leah so full of life and so innocent. Clay so jaded by his life but some how they fall in love. It wraps up the brothers stories and helps them bring peace back to into the Paxton family.

Excellent!
I highly recommend this whole series. This one in particular made me weep. Not because of tragedy, but because of tenderness and sacrificial love. These characters, Clay and Leah, are unforgettable in their humanity and heart. I didn’t want the story to stop! Sarah Sundin has outdone herself.

Well written WW2 story with a message of hope
What a great author and narrator! I thoroughly enjoyed the story, the details of life for families in WW2. The main characters are "human" but are so steadfast in their faith I found it personally encouraging. the romance was clean and wholesome and met a standard that most Christian romance novels often miss.
