Her boyfriend, Garan Schmidt, rides the wave and enlists in the army. After two years of separation, their reunion gives Beth cause for concern—plus she has their daughter to protect.

Returning to her Missouri farm to help her family through the Great Depression, Callie Blake stifles her lofty dreams to survive day-to-day. Rich and handsome, Trace Gentry is heartened by her return and tries to woo Callie to prove his genuine affection. Can a childhood crush mature to something more during such a constraining crisis? Love can always find a way.
Her Reluctant Hero by Anne Greene
After a searing rescue from a fire, Laura Richards loses track of heroic boyfriend Josh Langford to the war in Viet Nam. Left with only embers of the affection they once shared, Laura builds a successful career as a stewardess and finds her place in the swinging sixties. Devoted to recapturing her love, Josh flies as a passenger on her routes until the door of opportunity opens.
Hearts in Flight by Patty Smith Hall
Special pilot Maggie Daniels overcomes skepticism and family objections to serve on the Pacific front, hoping to win the admiration of squadron leader Wesley Hicks. The cost of war has already been too real for Wesley. Does he dare risk happiness with a beautiful first-class pilot amid the devastation of war? Their trust in God will help bridge the gap for a tentative peace.

With plenty of men looking for wives, trouble festers at every turn, to the consternation of Sheriff John Powell. When a desperado shows up looking for Ruth, the lawman lets down his guard to embrace affection.
