When Jack Collins volunteered for the Royal Air Force at the outbreak of the Second World War, he was eager for combat, and eager to serve his country. He was a strong leader in his squadron and had prepared himself for all the nuances of war; the dogfights, patrols, rescue ops, and to the best of his ability - the emotions of war.  He wasn't prepared for the day a strong spirited and beautiful Sergeant in the WAAF showed up on the base, and the inevitable way he began to feel for her.

Charlotte Grant signed up for the WAAF in 1939. Eager to do something important, she left school and her home to serve best she could. When she gets stationed at Biggin Hill Airfield, she meets a young pilot who changes the course of the war for her in ways she never imaged possible. 

As the evacuation of Dunkirk unfolds and England prepares to defend its skies, two passionate people fall in love against the backdrop of the worlds darkest time.

Banished for five years, Lady Belinda Carrington returns to Willowfair, claiming to know things one would find impossible to believe. With her tainted reputation, can Belinda make Town Guard McKenzie Haverston help her in her pursuit of the truth? *** After her banishment five years ago, Belinda Carrington returns with secrets and tales too impossible to believe. But something in her lies makes McKenzie Haverston desperate for the truth... When Belinda shows up in McKenzie's home asking for protection in return for important information on a case he's working on, he rejects her. But when he learns where she had been banished after her great scandal five years ago, he finds himself striking a deal with the woman-he protects her, she gives him answers. The question now is: how true is her tale? She was once considered the fairest of them all, but one scandal later, she has become the most reviled. And she is also being hunted. If Belinda wants to stay alive, she has to start trusting McKenzie Haverston, a task she finds to be surprisingly easy to do. However, as the truth of the past begins to resurface, and the secrets of her scandal is revealed, Belinda is confronted by her own demons, causing her to doubt her own reality.
