Summary
“Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.” - Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights.
Star-crossed lovers/ stɑr krɔst ˈlʌvəz/ - A couple deeply in love but destined for tragedy due to fate, external forces, or unfortunate circumstances beyond their control. The term originates from astrology, implying that their love is doomed because the stars are not aligned in their favour.
༄༄༄༄༄༄༄
She was born into light. A name too heavy, a world too polished, a lie too carefully told. Of light and lies, she was forged. Hammered in silence, tempered by secrets, honed on the edge of truth. Sharpened not in the spotlight, but in shadow, where precision mattered more than praise. Power was never a gift. It was heat without mercy, a forge without rest, a quiet war beneath her skin. A weapon shaped by two worlds. Sharpened by love. Steeled by loss. And wielded only in darkness.

Summary
Sorcha Devlin never planned to find herself across the Pond stationed at the Thorpe Abbotts base, but as a promise to be close to her younger brother, she landed in this position. Cormack Devlin, younger by 2 years, was training to become a fighter pilot when Pearl Harbor occurred. As the son of Irish immigrants who were ever grateful to America and its bounty of opportunity, he pledged his undying loyalty to the country of his birth and was shipped over to England. Sorcha promised her mother that Cormack wouldn’t be alone, pledging to go with him as a form of protection and a sense of home.
Robert Rosenthal knew he wanted to become a pilot the day America declared they were going to war. He spent months training alongside his peers to get a chance to do something meaningful with his life. The strong sense of justice he carried within himself made its way to Thorpe Abbotts alongside him. He planned to stay focused solely on missions, seeing it as his duty to lead his men through these times.
The two meet on Rosie’s first day at Thorpe Abbotts, and slowly everything they vowed to never do comes true.

Summary
The only child to a single father, Frankie grew up behind a desk at the family garage, and for as long as she can remember, she has loved nothing more than the sounds of engines and the smell of oil. A natural-born tinkerer, it was only a matter of time before her imagination turned to the skies, and a life-long love of aircraft was born, propelling Frankie beyond her hometown and the expectations of her society.
Now a qualified aircraft mechanic in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force, she finds herself stationed at Thorpe Abbotts, surrounded by pilots from America, a land so far away it may as well be another planet. But the arrival of the 100th Bomb Group and a budding bond with Major Robert 'Rosie' Rosenthal promises to break more than just protocol.
