Description
A British nurse in WWI Egypt races to deliver explosive intelligence that could decimate the Allied war effort in this novel of suspense, adventure, and love.
1917: When British nurse Ginger Whitman finds a wounded enemy soldier hiding in her hospital camp in Palestine, she knows she should turn him in. But he's desperate and dying—and he claims he's a spy with a message about a critical plot against British forces.
Then the arrival of mysterious intelligence officer Major Noah Benson offers a chance of help. But Noah is as charming as he is dangerous, and Ginger's heart is at risk. With a deadly enemy hunting her, Ginger is caught in a crossfire of secrets and lies. Trusting the wrong person could do more than cost her life: it could change the course of the war.

5By AndiewritesandreadsWINDSWEPT is a gripping tale set against sweeping deserts of the Middle East during WWI. The characters jump off the page, and the action will set your heart racing. I fell in love with Ginger and Noah and the treacherous world the author creates with this story. You can tell the author did meticulous research on the historical period. It is a fascinating portrayal of brave women working in perilous and harrowing conditions incredibly close to the frontlines. There are twists and turns. Horseback chases. Swoon-worthy kisses. Shocking secrets. It has EVERYTHING you love about a wartime adventure romance. FIVE STARS.
