Anchor in the Storm by Sarah Sundin Book Review


Where to Purchase



About

In a time of sacrifice, what price can one put on true love?
Nothing slows Lillian Avery down--not her personal challenges and certainly not America's entry into World War II. She finally has a chance to prove herself as a pharmacist in Boston. The demands 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 Lillian has been filling?

As the danger rises on both land and sea, the two must work together to answer that question. But can Arch ever earn Lillian's trust and affection?

My review;

 Lillian Avery is a pharmacist in Boson and she really likes her job. America has just entered World War II. Lillian's  brother has a best friend named Ensign Archer Vanderberg who  is always a bother and will not stop. Arch has a problem with his men being alert as they try to find and  battle German U-boats. Lillian Avery has to help Arch find out what is really going on. Will they be able to work together? This is part of author  Sarah Sundin's "Waves of Freedom" series. These are wonderful stories of love , sacrifice and family. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book by Revell Publishing Company and all opinions are mine
