Anchor in the Storm (Waves of Freedom #2) by Sarah Sundin--Book Tour Review + All Hands on Deck Prize Pack Giveaway

6/8/2016

About the Book

Picture
One plucky female pharmacist + one high-society naval officer = romance—and danger
For plucky Lillian Avery, America’s entry into World War II means a chance to prove herself as a pharmacist in Boston. The challenges of her new job energize her. But society boy Ensign Archer Vandenberg’s attentions only annoy–even if he is her brother’s best friend.
During the darkest days of the war, Arch’s destroyer hunts German U-boats in vain as the submarines sink dozens of merchant ships along the East Coast. Still shaken by battles at sea, Arch notices his men also struggle with their nerves–and with drowsiness. Could there be a link to the large prescriptions for sedatives Lillian has filled? The two work together to answer that question, but can Arch ever earn Lillian’s trust and affection?
Sarah Sundin brings World War II to life, offering readers an intense experience they won’t soon forget.

Review

Sarah Sundin has once again written a fantastic historical, romance novel that readers will absolutely love.  This novel is well-written and bursting with characters that deal with issues readers can relate to. This story has plenty of mystery, drama, and romance to engage readers from page one all the way to the turn of the last page.  This novel has been well researched and will teach readers about interesting historical events.  I would recommend this fantastic novel to readers that enjoy historical fiction.
