Author Shanna Hatfield joins us with her latest
release, a sweet World War II romance. I'm also including the review I wrote of her book and an excerpt!
Can forbidden love blossom amid the constraints of war?
The moment the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor,
life shifted for Miko Nishimura. Desperate to reach the Portland Assembly
Center for Japanese-Americans, she’s kicked off the bus miles from town. Every
tick of the clock pushes her closer to becoming a fugitive in the land of her
birth. Exhausted, she stumbles to her grandparents’ abandoned farm only to find
a dying soldier sprawled across the step. Unable to leave him, she forsakes all
else to keep him alive.
After crashing his plane in the Battle of the
Atlantic, the doctors condemn Captain Rock Laroux to die. Determined to meet
his maker beneath a blue sky at his family home, he sneaks out of the hospital.
Weary and half out of his mind, he makes it as far as a produce stand he
remembers from his youth. Rather than surrender to death, Rock fights a battle
of the heart as he falls in love with the beautiful Japanese woman who saves
his life.
A poignant, sweet romance, Garden of Her Heart proves love can bloom in unlikely places even
under the most challenging circumstances.
