A Memory Between Us

Several months ago, I reviewed A Distant Melody, the first book in Sarah Sundin’s Wings of Glory series. I enjoyed this book, so I was glad to accept a review copy of A Memory Between Us, the second book in the series. Like the first book, this story is set during World War II, and the author’s research lends support and credibility to the story. However, the novel is much more than historical facts and warfare tidbits. It is a tale of love, forgiveness, and redemption, and I enjoyed it from cover to cover.

A Memory Between Us, is the story of Ruth Doherty and Jack Novak. When pilot Jack Novak is injured, nurse Ruth Doherty cares for him in the hospital. Although attracted to the beautiful nurse, Jack quickly realizes that Ruth Doherty forms relationships with no one, especially the soldiers in her care. He is able, however, to form a tentative friendship with her, and their relationship slowly grows. Unfortunately, the scars from Ruth’s past and Jack’s pride threaten to destroy their friendship and hinder any deepening of their relationship. Both Jack and Ruth must learn to trust in God before they can develop any fulfilling relationships with each other or their fellow servicemen and women.

A Memory Between Us is a fictional tale, but it is so relatable to everyone. All of us have made mistakes we deeply regret and have endured times when we relied on our own feeble strength instead of relying on God. I found this story to be heartwarming and uplifting, and I recommend it to all of you.
