Blurb

Lt. Kenneth Hellman is an American fighter pilot escorting B-24 bombers on a mission over Germany in WWII. After his plane is hit by enemy flak, he is captured and interrogated by one of the most ruthless men in the Waffen SS, Colonel Wolfgang Farber.

When two of Farber's men make sexual advances, Hellman is torn between loyalty to his country and acting on his latent homosexual desires; his decision will send him reeling as he faces a world he could never have imagined, one filled with raw, unbridled sex, his deepest core convictions called into question and many narrow escapes from death.

After surviving horrendous torture, he is then sent by train to a POW camp in Lamsdorf, Poland. After three days on the train, Hellman arrives at his assigned German POW camp, Stalag Luft VIII-B for captured enemy airmen. His first introduction to POW life is a run in with the unscrupulous Sergeant Heinrich Hitzig who runs a gang of guards inside the camp.

Kenneth soon meets Colonel Wilhelm Braun of the German Luftwaffe, the Commandant of the camp, who is smitten with his newest arrival. The German commandant saves the American flyboy from the dreary and abusive life of the typical POW by appointing him his personal assistant and valet.

But now, the Russians are closing in on the camp and Kenneth and Wilhelm must attempt to flee to safety. At a small airport in Lamsdorf, the Gestapo has discovered their plans and moves to intercept.

Wilhelm engages the Gestapo agents in gunfire and is ultimately captured, but his courageous acts have given his American Flyboy time to escape.

Will Kenneth and Wilhelm overcome daunting odds to be reunited and rekindle their fledgling relationship?



Review

I'm not big on historical romance. It has to really be amazing to keep me reading! So, I was nervous with this but I also was wickedly intrigued. I'm glad I chanced it. The MC of this story is Kenneth Hellman a flyboy who shoots down Nazis during WW2. It really is Kenneth's story. We pretty much go through this tale with him and his experiences. He becomes a POW and with that we live through it all. His interrogations, how he's treated, even conversations he has with his so called enemies. He finds out that they aren't in agreement with Hitler and Kenneth realizes so much about war in general.

It's when he meets Colonel Wilhelm Braun that Kenneth is given great purpose. Wilhelm and him fall for each other, hard! And of course with the end of a war there's so much chaos and uhg! Seeing these 2 ripped a part and what they go through it tore me up. The way Wilhelm calls Kenneth "His Flyboy" *swoon*

N.D. Clark's writing is descriptive, flowing, and beautiful. It's so life like I truly felt like I was in the moment with Kenneth and all he deals with.

Great read.
