This is the fifth volume of my award-winning Wattpad Featured Story, 'Posted As Missing', an intense adventure/romance set in the turmoil of World War One Europe. I've grown tired of blood-and-guts war stories, so I've written this series to examine deeper issues. David left the battlefields in the first chapter of the first volume of this story, and to this point, he has not returned to them. He has found far more effective ways to fight the German war machine. You might wish to read the earlier volumes in this series: 'Posted As Missing', 'Missing', 'Back in Action' and 'Watching Fritz'.Complete
Beneath the Same Sky (WW2 Novel)
[Book 1] 1939 marks the beginning of a tumultuous time in light of the outbreak of war in 20th century Europe. A new world order is forming in Germany under Nazi Rule as the Reich grows in the wake of its expansion. 24 year old Erika Müller has worked at her family bakery in Freiburg for as long as she can remember. As war breaks out, she is thrust into a perilous world unlike anything she has ever known. 25 year old Wilhelm Bauer is sent away to the front to fight for the Fatherland while he is plagued by nightmares of his past back in Berlin. The story follows the young couple as they navigate their path in a collapsing world which will question everything they have ever known, with dark secrets, heartbreaking sacrifices, and relentless trials at every turn. "Under the same sky they fell in love. In the shadow of war they were tested. Under the quiet stars they must decide what remains." Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. The plot as well as names or characters are fictitious. As it is still historical fiction, the places and major events (ie. bombing, invasion) are real and have occurred.Complete
After War Is Over
It's 1917. You are a medic in the war, crawling through no man's land to save your fellow soldiers. You are captured during you rendezvous by a German field medic -- a dark haired man who's pointing a Mauser at you and bleeding out. You must save him, you have no choice. You commit treachery -- you fall in love with him, even when you don't speak the same language. - There is a lot of German in the fic, and I do NOT expect you to understand any of it. That's the point, the reader canonically cannot understand German. You aren't expected to translate everything (but you can if you want to, I might have slipped in a few jokes.) Tactically translated German (Aka Maxis translating) is in bolded sentences.Complete
