Lighten Our Darkness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781973373391)

"I do not believe to live through this war; I have seen too many die to tell myself otherwise. I can be careful, but what is that? I am going to fight."

"World War II fiction at its best, full of endearing characters, riveting battle, fascinating relationships, deep themes, vivid settings, and well-crafted writing." Amazon/Goodreads Reviewer

A fighter pilot ready to die. A girl whose world has crumbled. A city bombed and broken. A country struggling for existence.

As a Polish fighter pilot serving in the RAF, Pilot Officer Jedrick Ondraski does not expect to survive the war with Nazi Germany; he only wants to avenge his family and homeland before he dies. But when he meets Helen Smith, a young American woman, during an air raid on a dark London street, the encounter forces him back into the world he has renounced. A marriage of convenience seems to be the only way for him to provide her a home and a life after the bombing that destroyed her tranquil home. Helen, destitute and alone, clings to him for help and comfort; but when he joins his squadron in aerial battle with the very enemy who destroyed his own country, there seems little hope of a future for either of them. As the Luftwaffe aggressively targets civilian London, the whole country braces for a Nazi invasion. And in the blackout of the London Blitz, two young souls reach out for life, love...and the One Who can lighten their darkness.

This WWII historical novel by author and historian Sarah Brazytis will take you to the bombed streets of London, the barracks of the RAF, and the flak-riddled skies of the Battle of Britain.
