Love's Belief
Wartime Brides book 3
by Linda Shenton Matchett
| -From Goodreads- Midwife Pia Hertz and her mother Sabine have been delivering babies long before the Nazis came to power. Now, the Third Reich has implemented mandates that require Jewish babies and other “undesirables” to be killed as part of The Final Solution. Is Pia’s new faith in Christ strong enough to defy the laws of man? Despite the agony of the injury at the Battle of Drøbak Sound that took his arm, Dieter Fertig is relieved he’s no longer part of Hitler’s army. He returns to Berlin and discovers Jews are being deported by the thousands. When he realizes the Nuremburg Laws require his best friend’s baby girl to be killed, he must find a way to spirit the child out of Germany before the Nazis discover her existence. Inspired by the biblical story of Shiprah and Puah, the midwives who saved Jewish babies during Pharaoh’s reign, Love’s Belief shows how one person’s actions can change the world. ASIN: B07QJ7VN9K Can they find love amidst the falling bombs? Over the years I've read a number of books and novellas set during WWII but Love's Belief is the very first one set in Germany with a German hero and heroine. I found the portrayal of average Germans, who are Christians, trying to survive the war and to do the right thing to be quite fascinating. Seriously, we've all read about the Blitz and Pearl Harbor, but how much have you thought about the everyday citizen in Germany attempting to live through the Allied bombing? I know I hadn't thought much about it but Linda Shenton Matchett sure got me doing just that. |  This Book received a 4 Bark rating.

Love's Belief is a short, quick read. In fact, I was surprised when I realized my Kindle said “book completed.” I found this WWII retelling of Shiprah and Puah from the book of Exodus to be quite interesting and the romance between the wounded Deiter and gentle Sabine to be quite sweet. Made so by the backdrop of falling bombs in an evil regime on its last legs. And, of course, now that I've read book 3 in the Wartime Brides series I'll need to go back and find books 1 and 2...
