I'll Be Seeing You by Robin Lee Hatcher

Generations of secrets unfold as a young college student learns the truth about her great-grandmother’s World War II heartbreak and love. For fans of Francine Rivers and Karen Kingsbury.

Brianna Hastings’s life seems dull and full of disappointment until a handsome young man visits her church. She’s instantly smitten by the charming Greg, who leads an exciting, independent life—the kind of life she longs for. But when a college history assignment forces Brianna to interview her great-grandmother about life during World War II, she can’t believe it when Daisy presses her with questions about Greg’s character. “What sort of man is he? Who is he at his core?”

What could her great-grandmother possibly know about love at first sight?

The questions take both women back to Boise, Idaho, in the early 1940s, when war emphasized how fragile life could be. Daisy and her older sister pine for the same handsome bomber pilot—until one night of terrible judgment reveals their true characters and drives them apart. Trying to protect the people she loves the most, Daisy condemns herself to live a lie.

In the years that follow, as Daisy grapples with the consequences, she receives unexpected grace from a man she’s known her whole life but never looked at twice. Could what she learned about love save Brianna from heartache three generations later?

My review:  I had a little trouble getting into this book.  It was actually two stories in one.  Daisy's and her great granddaughters stories.  I don't mind books that go back and forth in time.  It just seemed to drag.  I've read other books by Ms. Hatcher and thoroughly enjoyed them.  Brianna seems to be a really shallow person until the end of the book.  Daisy had to learn some very tough life lessons the hard way also.  Maybe I saw the book as a repeat of each others life.  I found myself skimming parts of the book just to finish it.

Fatal Code by Natalie Walters

In 1964, a group of scientists called the Los Alamos Five came close to finishing a nuclear energy project for the United States government when they were abruptly disbanded. Now the granddaughter of one of those five scientists, aerospace engineer Elinor Mitchell, discovers that she has highly sensitive information on the project in her possession--and a target on her back.

SNAP agent and former Navy cryptologist Kekoa Young is tasked with monitoring Elinor. This is both convenient since she's his neighbor in Washington, DC, and decidedly inconvenient because . . . well, he kind of likes her.

As Elinor follows the clues her grandfather left behind to a top-secret nuclear project, Kekoa has no choice but to step in. When Elinor learns he has been spying on her, she's crushed. But with danger closing in on all sides, she'll have to trust him to ensure her discoveries stay out of enemy hands.

This is second book in the SNAP Agency series.  I recommend reading the first book before you read this book.  It will help with following who's who in this book.  Kekoa can crack any computer that is put in front of him.  He is ask to spy on  his neighbor Elinor as part of his job.  The problem is he has started to have feelings for her.  He also has struggles with guilt about his brothers death.  He has a lot of issues he has to resolve.  Does he put his feelings behind him and do what he is told and try to find evidence against Elinor.  Elinor is trying to find clues that her grandfather left for her to find following his death.  Who does she trust?  She discovers things about her grandfather that she never knew.  Then she finds out Kekoa has been spying on her.  She's devastated.  This book is their journey to trust.

I recommend this book to all who enjoy a good mystery.  I'm looking forward to the next book in the SNAP series.

Sunburst by Susan May Warren

When former Navy SEAL and lifelong bachelor Ranger Kingston is called upon to take part in a rescue mission to save his brother Colt, who has been kidnapped by terrorists in Nigeria, he is shocked to find among the hostages a woman he knows and could never forget.

Noemi Sutton was attempting to return a young girl to her family in Boko Haram territory when she and the girl found themselves taken hostage, along with several others.

And while Ranger Kingston may be able to get the hostages away from their captors, he'll need Noemi's help if he ever hopes to get out of Nigeria alive.
Her solution? Pose as husband and wife. But when her uncle discovers the union, he insists on a traditional Nigerian wedding--binding Noemi to a man destined to break her heart. Worse, she's discovered the real reason she was kidnapped, and anyone around her is bound to be caught in the cross fire. Including her so-called new husband.

She'll need to figure out a way to leave the man she loves if she wants to save his life. 

My review: This is the second book in the Sky King Ranch series.  It's not necessary to read the first book in the series to read this book.  It would be helpful as it will fill in some of the pieces in this book.  Ranger is one of triplets.  An incident that happened years ago sent him to enlist in the Navy and become a SEAL.  He is a committed bachelor and has previously hurt Noemi.  He discovers his brother Colt and Noemi are being held captive by a terrorist group in Nigeria.  With the help of Colts employer and associates they are able to rescue Colt and Noemi.  The only problem is that they were separated and weren't able to get out of the country.  Noemi has an uncle in Nigeria and they go to him for  help. Ranger and Noemi have to get beyond old hurts in order to trust each other and stay alive.  

This a book well worth taking the time to read.  It kept me up way past my bedtime.  I'm anxious to read the next installment in this series.
