Review - Love Finds you in Victory Heights

Book - Love Finds You in Victory Heights Washington


I have always wondered what life was like for the women who worked in factories during World War II, in the 1940's. Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss have written a fascinating historical novel with a wholesome Christian-based love story. The main character "Rosalie" is similar to the popular ads portraying the famous "Rosie the Riveter." Rosalie finds faith in God, a love for a good man she never thought she would have, and has some wonderful friends. There are many trials she endures and some sad realities about the suffering of soldiers and their families.

I enjoyed reading about some of the music from that time period. The sayings used, like "doll" and "light a fire under it," were charmingly interspersed throughout the book.

I was amazed at how hard women worked on the home front. I cannot imagine how they did what they did!
