With Every Letter by Sarah Sundin
About the Book:
Book 1 in the Wings of the Nightingale series
Lt. Mellie Blake is looking forward to beginning her training as a flight nurse. She is not looking forward to writing a letter to a man she’s never met–even if it is anonymous and part of a morale-building program. Lt. Tom MacGilliver, an officer stationed in North Africa, welcomes the idea of an anonymous correspondence–he’s been trying to escape his infamous name for years.
As their letters crisscross the Atlantic, Tom and Mellie develop a unique friendship despite not knowing the other’s true identity. When both are transferred to Algeria, the two are poised to meet face-to-face for the first time. Will they overcome their fears and reveal who they are, or will their future be held hostage by their pasts?
Combining a flair for romance with excellent research and attention to detail, Sarah Sundin vividly brings to life the perilous challenges of WWII aviation, nursing–and true love.

My Take: This book explores how things that happen in our past can affect our lives for the rest of our lives. Both of the main characters need to overcome something that happened to them in the past. It also examines how it is easier to share things with others if it is without fear of them knowing who you are.
I liked the whole pen pal concept and I really liked how the characters each had their own reason for wanting to remain anonymous. The tension builds in the book as the two are assigned to the same place. Will they meet and learn the truth about each other? what will happen?
A great start to a new series. I look forward to the next book.
