The love of Amelia Robinson's life just asked her to run away with him. Except she had one problem: Amelia couldn't possibly leave her grandmother who single-handedly raised her. On one afternoon, her grandmother sits her down and tells her a story.
It begins in 1940, in the face of the Second World War. Except, for them, in the fields of rural Philadelphia, war was at the back of their mind. The story is one of those who get left behind, a bright-haired boy, and the rolling fields where their love began.
On her own, Amelia will learn the importance of each decision she makes. But together, she and her grandmother will learn all there is to know about love, commitment, and second chances.

The Golden Soldier (Call of Duty: WW2 Fanfiction)
Avaline Baker is a young woman on a camping trip with friends when she decides to go into a museum that will change her life forever. Somehow transported into the future, Ava finds herself at the barrel tip of Nazi German soldier. Transported to their camp as prisoner, Ava is lost and confused as to what, where, and who she is with...the how part is the most antagonizing. Shortly after being saved by two American men, Ava discovers she's been placed at the center of World War Two. Surrounded by warfare and American men who have strict mindsets about women in the the 1940's, the 21-year-old feels like she has no hope of surviving. To even have a chance, Ava has to prove that just because she's a woman, doesn't mean she isn't capable of fighting to survive like the rest of them. Ava finds herself stuck in 1944, with "strange" technology called a cell phone, no way of charging it, and no way of getting home. In the midst of a gruesome and horrifying war, she finds herself questioning more than just sanity of the time period, but even her own. Hopefully, with careful and calculating steps, Ava will survive the blistering cold winters, the first-hand experience of a war, and developing a difficult bond with the men of 1st Platoon. --•--•--•-- This is a work of fan-fiction, which means I don't own practically anything.

No God but You - A John Egan Fanfiction
©bloodlikegrace Cover credit goes to the amazing @adonysiac In the heart of World War II, amidst the chaos of battle and the sanctity of faith, an impossible love takes root. Major John "Bucky" Egan, a decorated American pilot with a devil-may-care charm, thrives in the skies where danger and adrenaline keep him alive. But beneath the bravado lies a man haunted by loss and longing, desperate for something real in a world that's falling apart. Margaret Eleanor Whitcomb, a devout nun raised in the quiet confines of a London convent, has dedicated her life to God and her duty as a nurse. Shy, compassionate, and bound by her vows, Margaret has never questioned her purpose-until war brings her to the frontlines, where she meets a man who makes her question everything she believes. When their worlds collide at Thorpe Abbotts, a U.S. airbase on English soil, they find themselves drawn together in defiance of everything that should keep them apart. Their love is a sin, a betrayal of their oaths and their faith, but it is also undeniable. For Margaret, it is a test of her devotion to God and her own heart. For Bucky, it is the one thing that gives him hope in a world consumed by destruction. As the war rages on, so does their forbidden love-a love that burns brighter than the bombs falling from the sky but threatens to destroy them both. Torn between duty and desire, faith and freedom, Margaret and Bucky must decide: Can love truly conquer all, or will the cost of their passion be too great to bear? No God but You is a powerful tale of love, sacrifice, and the courage to defy the boundaries set by faith, society, and war. Perfect for readers of historical romance and fans of forbidden love stories, this novel delves deep into the emotional turmoil of two souls finding salvation in each other during the darkest of times.
