Capturing Hope by Angela Couch
One step ahead of the Nazi’s. . .leaves Nadia little room for hope.
Full of intrigue, adventure, and romance, this new series celebrates the unsung heroes—the heroines of WWII.
After her father is murdered by Nazis and her mother flees to her native Germany, hope is something of which Nadia Roenne feels little—even if it is the meaning of her name. It isn’t until an American photographer sacrifices his escape from Poland to save a Jewish family, that she finds a purpose.
David Reid is very familiar with failure, but when he is charged with getting Nadia safely out of Poland, he is determined to succeed—even if she works against him at every turn, putting other’s lives ahead of her own. While they race against the daily shower of bombs over Warsaw and the ever-nearing German army, Nadia grows used to risking her life. . .but dare she risk her heart?

One Review of the Book:
“
In a world ensnared by the icy grip of Nazi tyranny, a noblewoman’s hope shines as a beacon of unwavering courage, love, and Christian faith. Capturing Hope is a captivating tribute to the unsung heroines of World War 2. I passionately recommend this novel for anyone who craves a heart-pounding narrative steeped in adventure, intrigue, and the timeless strength of love. It’s an unmissable journey that will captivate your soul and leave an indelible mark on your heart.
Angela K. Couch’s latest work introduces readers to a cast of characters so intricately crafted that they leap off the page and into your heart. These characters grapple with profound emotions, inner conflicts, and personal struggles that make them not just relatable but deeply endearing. As the story unfolds, the emotional depth of their journeys becomes a powerful catalyst for reflection in the reader’s own life. You’ll find yourself witnessing their trials and triumphs as if you are right there with them.
Couch’s ability to infuse her characters with authenticity and vulnerability is nothing short of remarkable. Through their stories, readers are invited to explore themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the healing power of love, leaving an enduring impact on their own lives. It’s a testament to the author’s skill that these characters continue to resonate long after the final page is turned, reminding us of the enduring power of storytelling to touch our hearts and inspire our souls.
The resilience of the human spirit and the power of Christian faith intertwine in this beautifully crafted story. This book held my attention from start to finish. Its irresistible narrative kept me engaged and captivated. Even now, many days after turning the last page, its characters, theme, and vivid descriptions linger in my thoughts and heart.”
Meet Angela Couch
To keep from freezing in the Great White North, Angela Couch cuddles under quilts with her laptop. Winning short story contests, being a semi-finalist in ACFW’s Genesis Contest, and a finalist in the International Digital Awards also helped warm her up.
As a passionate believer in Christ, her faith permeates the stories she tells. Her martial arts training, experience with horses, and appreciation for good romance sneak in there, as well. When not writing, she stays fit (and warm) by chasing after six munchkins.
