More from Cori
Hearts Under Fire is a historical romance with a contemporary twist. The historical plotline was inspired by the first-hand accounts provided by my grandparents on both sides of the family. Hearts Under Fire differs in that it brings in a contemporary twist and it explores the idea of the parallels between the love story in 1941 and the contemporary love story from present day.

My Review
Hearts Under Fire is a fabulous debut for new author Cori Lynn. She has written a beautiful story of romance, history and intrigue. I enjoyed going back and forth to present times to the World War II era. I had to keep reading to find out what discoveries would come out in the end. I was engaged with the story right from the start. I loved every single page and could not put it down.
I will be giving Hearts Under Fire a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy reading historical fiction with a time slip theme. I can not wait to get my hands on the next book from Cori Lynn. She has definitely proven herself to be a true talent.
I received a paperback copy of Hearts Under Fire from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
