Reader review, 5 stars She's fallen into enemy territory. Can she find a way out? Geraldine Fitz-Herbert, known to those close to her as Fitz, might have grown up amidst the British aristocracy and its endless matchmaking schemes, but she's never quite fit into that world. She'd much rather take to the skies, the one place where she can truly be free. As war breaks out, Fitz refuses to let societal conventions tie her down and volunteers at the Air Transport Auxiliary, eager to serve her king and country. But a chance encounter with charismatic American flight officer Sam Carter changes everything. While Fitz has always been focused on the job, Sam's lingering glances and roguish smile stir feelings she can't ignore. Before long, they're embarking on a passionate affair, introducing Fitz to a love unlike any she's known - until the harsh reality of war intervenes. When Fitz's piloting and linguistic skills are discovered, she's sent on a top-secret mission to join the local resistance in Brittany. Brave and determined, she throws herself into the operation, only to face a terrifying German ambush upon arrival. Stranded alone in enemy territory, with no backup or help, Fitz must rely on her wits and courage to find her way back to safety - and back to Sam. A gorgeously poignant and moving WWII novel of resilience and strength, that shows how a war fuelled by hate can teach so much about love. Fans of Suzanne Kelman, Soraya M. Lane and Mandy Robotham will be swept away by this gripping historical romance with each new page. Readers are LOVING The Girl in the Sky: 'Wow! This was incredible! I absolutely devoured this book.

Download or read book The Art of the Shoe written by Marie-Josèphe Bossan and published by Parkstone International. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is more common than a pair of shoes? In a world where shoes have become an object of mass consumption, these accessories are now rid of any significance. The industry has accomplished its duty: producing a large quantity at a low price. But there was a time when the shoe symbolised the strength of the Roman legion, the power of the Medieval lords or the oppression of the Chinese woman. Its history is both vast and enthralling, as revealed by the author Marie-Josèphe Bossan. Supporting her analysis with an outstanding iconography, the author gives these commonplace objects a universal quality that sheds light on the whole of civilisation and elevates them to the rank of a work of art.
