From award-winning historical novelist Liz Tolsma comes a moving World War II story of courage, sacrifice, and unexpected love amid the final, devastating days of Nazi Germany. Daisies Are Forever offers an unforgettable portrait of resilience in the face of unimaginable loss, perfect for readers who enjoy WWII fiction, marriage-of-convenience romance, and faith-filled historical novels.

The fall of the Third Reich is imminent. As the merciless Red Army advances from the East, the German people of Prussia await the worst.

Among them is twenty-year-old Gisela Cramer, an American living in Heiligenbeil with her cousin Ella and their ailing grandfather. When word arrives that the Russians will invade overnight, Ella urges Gisela to escape to Berlin--and take Ella's two small daughters with her.

The journey is miserable and relentless. But when Gisela hears the British accent of a phony SS officer, she poses as his wife to keep him safe among the indignant German refugees. In the blink of an eye, Mitch Edwards and Gisela are Herr and Frau Josep Cramer.

Through their tragic and difficult journey, the fabricated couple strives to protect Ella's daughters, hoping against hope for a reunion. But even as Gisela and Mitch develop feelings beyond the make-believe, the reality of war terrorizes their makeshift family.

With the world at its darkest, and the lives of two children at stake, the counterfeit couple finds in each other a source of faith, hope, and the love they need to survive.

Set against the harrowing backdrop of World War II's final months, Daisies Are Forever vividly captures the suffering endured by civilians while illuminating the enduring power of love, family, and faith. Tolsma's compelling storytelling and meticulous historical research bring to life a deeply emotional journey marked by loss, perseverance, redemption, and hope.
