This series is the best I have ever read. I re-read these two books every year around Christmas and enjoy them even more each time. Although it has been pointed out that the editing was not up to par (which I agree), it didn't take away from the story for me. The tale is very accurate historically and I have learned much from it. Aside from being interesting factually, I was completely wrapped up in the story line of the characters. Since the books focus on more than just one or two people, they effectively held my attention and kept me reading. I recommend these books to everyone.
Before Night Fall, by Maryann Minatra.

I gave this book five stars because I loved this book I found it tasteful and exciting. I fell in love with all the characters. And I found this book romantic while not racy. I learned a lot about World War II, while it didn't push the facts on me. But I did find this book slightly slow, but a lot of fun to read. All in all I think it was a great book and everyone should read it.
A Very Entertaining Read

This book was great! It is the story of a wealthy German who helps smuggle Jews out of pre-World War II Germany while fooling his friends and family pretending to be a firm Nazi. I enjoyed the complex plot and the tension between the hero and heroine. Though it is set in a depressing era of history, Minatra manages to keep the story optimistic. The romantic story is very entertaining. The only flaw I can find is that for a Christian romance, this book doesn't have as many religious themes as the sequel.
