"A mirror shows a stranger, whose eyes avoid the truth. In laughter, lies the danger of forgetting bitter youth." Wildlife and farming ignited joy throughout her childhood, but clutching a pistol and keeping her head down was her only option. Alice liebgott didn't know how to fit in anymore; a small-town girl living in Holland with a city heart, her dreams collapsed as soon as the Germans entered the forefront of her thoughts. When the opportunity occurred for her to increase her chances of fleeing, by joining the Dutch resistance, the weight of the world felt lighter on her conscience. Eventually, hope fades. When she is captured by the Nazis and forced to work as a flight nurse, her hope is restored when she finds herself on American land. Again. extended summary inside. Robert Rosenthal x oc

He said my eyes were deep blue pools My skin as soft as snow Lovely He told me I was sexier than Marilyn Monroe And we went dancing We went dancing --- Chrissy O'Shea never imagined the war would carry her so far from the green hills of Ireland. Now stationed on an American air base in England as a first response nurse, she moves through each day with practiced strength-mending wounds, offering comfort, and trying not to get too close. But everything changes when one pilot refuses to be just another name on her rounds. With every encounter, Chrissy is drawn into something deeper-something dangerous. As the missions grow more deadly and the line between duty and desire begins to blur, Chrissy must decide how much of herself she's willing to risk... for a man who might not come back. ---

. *. ⋆ Simone Adler was 23 years old when she decided she'd do all she could to help bring the war to an end- to do that, she studied and trained for hours a day, multiple days a week, her efforts being given to becoming a nurse. A flight nurse, specifically, where she'd be on board with the men, aiding them when needed, her skills there to help save lives that would be lost if she weren't on board. Through this process, Simone met the men she would be stationed with, being those of the 100th Bomb Group. They all seemed okay in Simone's opinion- except for one, that is. John D. Brady, the bane of her existence- he was insufferable, always cranky, and for some reason hated her before she could even have a real conversation with him. The hatred was mutual, of course- however, the hatred was quick to morph into something different, something more friendly after the two encountered near-death situations. It was something that resembled love- something that was love, and it was so very clearly the one thing that was destined to save them in the end.

Sorcha Devlin never planned to find herself across the Pond stationed at the Thorpe Abbotts base, but as a promise to be close to her younger brother, she landed in this position. Cormack Devlin, younger by 2 years, was training to become a fighter pilot when Pearl Harbor occurred. As the son of Irish immigrants who were ever grateful to America and its bounty of opportunity, he pledged his undying loyalty to the country of his birth and was shipped over to England. Sorcha promised her mother that Cormack wouldn't be alone, pledging to go with him as a form of protection and a sense of home. Robert Rosenthal knew he wanted to become a pilot the day America declared they were going to war. He spent months training alongside his peers to get a chance to do something meaningful with his life. The strong sense of justice he carried within himself made its way to Thorpe Abbotts alongside him. He planned to stay focused solely on missions, seeing it as his duty to lead his men through these times. The two meet on Rosie's first day at Thorpe Abbotts, and slowly everything they vowed never to do comes true.
