American Bombshell by David King
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2.1 mb
Overview: Inspired by a true story, American Bombshell is a tale of love, risk and coming of age during the final convulsions of World War Two.
Incarcerated in an abusive orphanage by an unstable and vengeful mother, seventeen-year-old Rosie Haskell is released in February 1944 to survive in an adult world.
She finds a job at a wartime radio factory. At a dance she meets Eugene, a glamorous Irish-American pilot, a dash of Hollywood in a drab English town. Despite appearances, Eugene is falling apart from the constant stress of flying his B17 bomber over Germany and the huge burden of keeping his crew alive.
As Rosie tiptoes around physical intimacy with Eugene, Hazel, a tough attractive Yorkshire woman, enters the picture. Rosie, caught at a vulnerable moment, is seduced by her in what is her first sexual experience.
In the summer of 1944, as D-Day and the invasion of Europe draw closer, Rosie tries to make sense of her feelings and steer her own course.
While Eugene and his crew struggle to survive their missions over Germany, Rosie must grow up fast, dodging Hitler’s flying bombs and mustering all her wits to find the true love and stability she needs.
