In the German Enchantment collection
(Feb. 2002--Barbour)
"Dearest Enemy" is a historical novella
in a group of four interrelated novellas dating from the 1600's to present
day--all involving two special families and one very special castle.
(Authors are: Dianne Christner, Irene Brand, Pamela Griffin, and Gail Gaymer
Martin)
In "Dearest Enemy", Brigetta Linder is tired of the Great War that has
raged for almost four years, and longs for peace. When she stumbles across
wounded American POW, Joseph, near her home in the Black Forest, she struggles
with her own inner battle--should she turn him over to the authorities, as a
loyal citizen of the fatherland would do? Or should she help him, as her
Heavenly Father would expect her to do?
Over the weeks, the issues become even more clouded the closer Brigetta grows to
Joseph, and he to her. Yet two enemies of war can have no common ground--can
they? With the danger of discovery always near, Brigetta must face one of the
most important decisions of her life--one that will forever affect her, her
family, and the enemy she has grown to love.
