Pearl Harbor, 1941. War planes hurtle across the horizon, skimming the clouds. Gunpowder fills the air as the earth shatters. Everett's hands cup my cheeks. "If I lose you, Elizabeth, please know that the time I've spent with you has been worth every second I've been alive." On the fateful day that sirens rend the air and warplanes fly over the harbor, Elizabeth and Everett had sneaked away to whisper sweet nothings to each other. As bombs rain down, they cling to each other, the ground shaking and smoke suffocating them. Miraculously, they survive-but their world is ripped apart. The beautiful island, where the turquoise ocean once lapped the golden sand, is destroyed. Over a sweltering summer, the couple had fallen madly in love. Elizabeth was in awe of Everett's sacrifices for the Air Force, and Everett adored strong-willed Elizabeth, a Jewish girl who defied her father's wishes for a sheltered life by training to be a nurse. But tragedy changes everything. Although they are hopelessly devoted to one another, they vow to serve their country. Elizabeth joins the Army Nurse Corps in Europe and Everett flies across the world chasing down the enemy. With a tearful goodbye, they promise to write. When Everett's letters stop arriving, heartbroken Elizabeth fears the worst. Will she ever see the love of her life again? And what chance does she have of surviving Europe, where Hitler's tyrannical rule places her in grave danger? Fans of The Girls of Pearl Harbor, The Alice Network and The Tattooist of Auschwitz will be utterly addicted to this unputdownable and devastatingly romantic tear-jerker about the heartbreaking reality of war and the power of love to overcome all. Readers love The Lieutenant's Girl: "I can barely see now because I spent so much of the book in tears. I cried because my heart hurt. I cried in joy. I cried because I was laughing so hard... I will not hesitate to go back and read it over and over again... My book hangover at the end of this one is going to take hours, possibly even days, to recover. Take this as the warning it's meant to be and keep boxes of tissues handy." Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Wow wow wow, what a book... I don't think any words will do this book justice. It was powerful, emotional, breathtaking and just absolutely beautiful... I adored the love story." Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Will leave you feeling all the emotions. I was fully immersed in this book... I had tears streaming down my cheeks into my face mask while flying at 30,000 feet." Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I loved everything about this book... I had tears in my eyes... Will stay with me for a long time." Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This novel left me breathless, wanting more... I don't think there are any adjectives, other than breath-taking, to describe this novel. Ten worthy stars." Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A young astronomer in colonial Australia faces tragedy on the ground in this follow-up to the award-winning The Secret River—“A triumph. Read it at once” (The Sunday Times, UK). A stunning follow-up to her Commonwealth Writers’ Prize-winning book, The Secret River, Grenville’s The Lieutenant is a gripping story of friendship, self-discovery, and the power of language set along the unspoiled shores of 1788 New South Wales, Australia. As a boy, Daniel Rooke was an outsider. Ridiculed in school for his intellect and misunderstood by his parents, he finds a path for himself in the British Navy—and in his love for astronomy. As a young lieutenant, Daniel joins a voyage to Australia. And while his countrymen struggle to control their cargo of convicts and communicate with nearby Aboriginal tribes, Daniel constructs an observatory to chart the stars and begin the work he prays will make him famous. Out on his isolated point, Daniel becomes involved with the local Aborigines, forging an intimate connection with one girl that will change the course of his life. But when his compatriots come into conflict with the indigenous population, Daniel must turn away from the stars and declare his loyalties on the ground.

Hattie Walker dreams of becoming a painter, while her parents want her to settle down. As a compromise, they give her two months to head to Denver and place her works in an exhibition or give up the dream forever. Her journey is derailed when a gunman attacks her stagecoach, leaving her to be rescued by a group of Arapaho . . . but she's too terrified to recognize them as friendly. Confirmed bachelor Lieutenant Jack Hennessey has long worked with the tribe and is tasked with trying to convince them that the mission school at Fort Reno can help their children. When a message arrives about a recovered survivor, Jack heads out to take her home--and plead his case once more. He's stunned to run into Hattie Walker, the girl who shattered his heart--but quickly realizes he has a chance to impress her. When his plan gets tangled through translation, Jack and Hattie end up in a mess that puts her dreams in peril--and tests Jack's resolve to remain single.
