The Thistle Series

A lonely Scots RAF nurse, pining for her Scottish island, and a critically injured American bomber pilot with a painful past struggle to find a future together.

In a world torn apart by Hitler’s Luftwaffe and invading U-boats, Colonel Rob Savage, an American Army Air Forces commander, and Maggie, his Scots wife, struggle to realize their dreams.

Constant fear, piercing sirens, the darkness of war ... all that fades with The Promise of Dawn. World War II is over, but there's much rebuilding to be done on the wee Scottish isle of Innisbraw. How can Rob and Maggie Savage bring new life to their home and help folk provide for themselves and their families?

Rob and Maggie Savage, busy with their growing family, welcome the return of Rob’s former Air Forces mate, Den Anderson. However, the person Den missed the most on storm-tossed Innisbraw—the very reason for his move to the Scots isle from America—is sweet Fern. She’s determined to close her heart to any man who doesn’t share her beliefs, while Den has no use for a distant, overbearing God.

Will Maggie’s fears stop Rob from following God’s call? Each time Rob Savage responds to a sea rescue from their Scottish isle, his wife, Maggie, is haunted by nightmares of catastrophe. Could this call be his last? How would she and the children live without Rob? A sweeping love story, the Thistle series follows the lives of a former WWII bomber pilot and his wife, a former RAF nurse.
