Five-time Christy Award winner Lynn Austin is acclaimed as “one of the genre’s best historical fiction novelists” ( Library Journal). Set in Brooklyn, New York, during World War II, While We’re Far Apart is a brilliant blend of captivating characters, heart-tugging emotions, and vivid spiritual truths. While a motherless girl longs for her daddy and a young lady hopes for a second chance at love, this poignant tale explores the uncertainty that stalks the homefront as the “War to End All Wars” rages in Europe.

Wonderful story
This was one of my favorite books yet. The narration was excellent and having a male and female tell the story was amazing.

My favorite Lisa Wingate to date!
Johanna Parker has been a favorite narrator of mine for a while, Scott Sowers now ranks right up there with her. The story was very good, with the right amount of mystery, suspense, and a touch of romance. As all of Wingates books, this one is clean, opens up thought provoking spiritual struggles, but tells of less than perfect lives and how we deal with what we've been given. Can't wait for the rest of the series!

Good clean love story
After finishing ALL of Lynn Austin’s books I was searching for a comparable author. Lynn writes Christian historical fiction books, with a salvation message intertwined. While a few of Lisa’s books are based on historical events, they are clean books about people of faith. The faith part is not a significant thread in the stories. While in Lynn’s books they are. It depends on what you are looking for. Lisa’s books are a easy listen. I enjoy them. I would recommend them. This book in particular is not based on a historical event.

Good book
This was a good book and I will get more of her books. The only part of the book I didn’t like was the worry wart mother over the teenage boy. It was just a little much. I loved the voice of Len!!!
