Book excerpt: RUTH AUBERTIN’s father, a highly decorated veteran of the Great War, moves his family from British Palestine to the wild of Great Britain after the Hebron masacre in 1929. He has always known the Germans would return to France, and trained his children from the time they could walk, turning them into finely tuned weapons with multiple skills ranging in weapons training to hand-to-hand combat. When the Germans roll into France, Ruth and her brothers volunteer with the British Special Services and Ruth joins the Virtues team under the code name of GRACE. Never knowing the bond of sisterhood before, Ruth grows close to the six other women on the team and learns to rely on them and their varied skills as she goes undercover in Occupied France. Working directly for the notorious Praetorian, she and her team plan the largest prisoner escape in the war to date. The arrest of TEMPERANCE raises the stakes. Now they have to move their time table up, increasing the overall risk of the mission. Can Ruth and her team pull off the mission, or will too many variables crash together at the wrong time? GRACE’S GROUND WAR is part five of eight serialized novellas entitled the Virtues and Valor series. Seven valorous women — different nationalities, ethnicities, and social backgrounds — come together as a team called the Virtues. In 1941 Great Britain a special war department assembles an experimental and exclusively female cohort of combat operatives. Four willing spies, a wireless radio operator, an ingenious code breaker, and a fearless pilot are each hand-picked, recruited, and trained to initiate a daring mission in Occupied France. As plans are laid to engineer the largest prison break of Allied POWs in history, the Nazis capture the Virtues’ radio operator. It will take the cohesive teamwork of the rest of the women to save her life before Berlin breaks her and brings the force of the Third Reich to bear. Some find love, some find vengeance, and some discover the kind of strength that lives in the human heart when all they can do is rely on each other and their shared belief. Courage, faith, and valor intersect but, in the end, one pays the ultimate price. Continuing the Virtues and Valor series by Hallee Bridgeman. Eight serialized novellas, each inspired by real people and actual events, reveal the incredible story of amazing heroines facing the ultimate test of bravery. *************** the virtues in valor series, virtues in valor, world war ii, bridgeman, christian, christian fiction, christian romance, contemporary, contemporary christian fiction, contemporary christian romance, contemporary inspirational fiction, contemporary inspirational romance, edgy christian fiction, edgy christian romance, edgy inspirational fiction, edgy inspirational romance, fiction, hailey bridgeman, haley bridgeman, halle bridgeman, hallee bridgeman, inspirational, inspirational christian fiction, inspirational fiction, inspirational romance, olivia kimbrell press, Historical Fiction Time Periods, Military & War, Romance, Romantic Heroes, Romantic Themes, Inspirational, Military, Politicans, Spies, International, General, navy, army, soldier, politician, Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Characters, Mystery, Thriller & Suspense, Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Moods, Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Settings, Female Protagonists, Mystery, Small Towns, Suspense, Thrillers, Literary Fiction Themes, Women's Fiction Themes, 20th Century, Friendship, Love Stories, Religion, love, religious, spiritual, career, Religion & Spirituality, Christian Books & Bibles, Spirituality, Christian Fiction, Christian Living, Women, Music, woman, Family, Women's Inspirational, inspire, inspires, inspiration, christian, Hymns, christians, christianity, man, men, Romantic, Thriller, God, Jesus, Holy Spirit, sprititual, invasion, traditional romance, europe, axis, allies, nazi, fascist, fascism, hitler, occupied france, france, germany, england, london, paris, berlin, agents, secret agents, valor, virtues, bravery, oss, wwii, world war ii, world war 2, heroines, courage, intelligence, spy, espionage, holocaust, war in europe, agent provocateur, temperance, hope, charity, prudence, grace, mercy, faith, lust, chastity, purity, gluttony, self-restraint, greed, giving, sloth, diligence, wrath, forgiveness, composure, envy, kindness, pride, humility, humbleness, war, warfare, secret war, blitzkrieg, combat, soldiers, prison, interrogation, torture, disguise, subterfuge, deception, Louis Zamperini, Corrie ten Boom, Anne Frank, Bodie Thoene, Brock Thoene, Tricia Goyer, Don Brown, Sarah Sundin, Stephen Ambrose, Unbroken, The Imitation Game, The Hiding Place, Diary of Anne Frank, Alan Turing,
