In a time when the world teetered on the brink of destruction, two souls found each other amidst the uncertainty. Rainbow of Promise , the latest historical romance by award-winning author R. Janet Walraven, is a stirring tribute to timeless love, unwavering hope, and the true-life legacy of her own parents during World War II.

Set in 1942 Enid, Oklahoma, Rainbow of Promise offers more than just nostalgia-it delivers emotional resonance wrapped in rich historical authenticity. Through jitterbug dances, longing glances, and crackling chemistry, readers are transported into a world where love must navigate the shadows of secrecy and the looming threat of war.

Literary Titan hails the novel as "a heartfelt, old-fashioned love story... nostalgic in all the best ways-like slipping into a vintage movie where the world is complicated, but love is pure." With evocative writing "rich with period detail and genuine emotion," Walraven crafts a story "for anyone who's ever believed in fate or had their heart flip over a well-timed glance."

Anchored by unforgettable characters-Sadina "Sadie" Wagner, a vivacious and independent woman ahead of her time, and W.E. "Bill" Walraven, a soft-spoken Southern gentleman torn between duty and desire-the novel pulses with longing and tenderness. Their poignant love story is made all the more powerful by its roots in reality.

Included in the book is W.E.'s actual wartime journal, written during his time in Europe, along with historical photographs that ground the novel in the lived experience of WWII. These elements elevate Rainbow of Promise beyond fiction into the realm of treasured family legacy and historical documentation.

Recipient of the Literary Titan Gold Book Award and Southwest Writers Short Story Award, Walraven's latest work has already captured critical acclaim. Fans of The Notebook , Atonement , and Letters from Iwo Jima will find much to cherish in this tale of enduring love during humanity's darkest hour.
