Goyer and Fleiss have done it again! Their latest installment in Summerside's Love Finds You series has just been released. The blog tour runs August 16th - September 1st and to celebrate Tricia is  
giving away 5 Victory Prize Packs during the tour. Take the short jaunt over to her blog and check out the details! (Coming Soon!)

About the book: The war has stolen Rosalie’s fiancé, Vic, from her forever.  But rather than wallow, Rosalie distracts herself by cramming her days full of activity—mainly by shooting rivets into the B-17 bombers that will destroy the enemy.

When a reporter dubs her “Seattle's Own Rosie the Riveter,” even more responsibility piles up. Her strong arms bear all this, but when intense feelings surface for Kenny, the handsome, kind-hearted, and spiritually unwavering reporter, the fear of losing another love propels Rosalie to leave.

It’s only when Rosalie realizes that God has brought her to this place—and this person—for a reason, the sparkling grace of God compels her to let go of her own strength and lean on His, as well as open her heart to love.

I throughly enjoyed every page of this book and savored it  until the end.

Jennifer at The Toy Box Years       
While I usually find books that are co-authored do not flow well, you can hardly tell that two authors wrote this book.  The chapters flow together easily and are consistent.  The authors did their research and weaved what they learned into a quality story.  While this book is both a love story and a history lesson, it's also a story of faith and hope and learning to trust again. I throughly enjoyed every moment of reading this book and highly recommend it to others!

Tricia and Ocieanna did a fantastic job taking us to the Seattle area in 1943. You can hear the rivets and smell the ocean, the authors attention to detail and research definitely shines thorough. I loved the variety of characters and the appearance of the celebrities of the time period.

It’s refreshing to read a story that ends up with everybody happy.

Sharon at Sharon's Garden of Book Review
I absolutely fell in love with the World War II era story featured in "Love Finds You In Victory Heights, Washington. Focusing on the women who were left behind to carry on the work during wartime while the men were away fighting to keep our country free, this romantic tale is a tribute to these ladies and the adversities they overcame. The authors, Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss, obviously did their research on this subject and period in time, and I was delighted to find that they captured the essence of the era perfectly.

My father fought in World War II and although he didn't talk much about what he saw while in the Fourteenth Air Force Group, the American Volunteer Group and the Flying Tigers who fought in China, India and Burma, he did share his love of the music of the time. Glenn Miller, the Andrew Sisters, Bing Crosby and others were a part of my childhood, and seeing that they are incorporated into this fantastic novel was a real treat.

Renee at Black 'n Gold Girl's Book Spot    
Not only is the cover beautiful but the story is as well. I especially loved that the dialogue between characters was authentic to the 1940s. You don't hear "doll" and "sweets" used much these days! Tricia and Ocieanna did a good job with this one. It will be interesting to see what they come up with next!

Margaret at Creative Madness Mama    
The characters flow off the pages and make this an enjoyable end of summer read or for anytime. The language of the time and place are fascinating and this book is a great one to fall into the pages of as a journey for a little escape.

Loved this book!  There have been several Love Finds You books that I have read, and this one is one of my favorites - hands down!!

Karla at Ramblin' Roads        
Not only is it a fun love story, I also enjoyed the historical setting and events woven throughout. It was very well-researched, which always makes a book more enjoyable in my opinion.

Stacey AT WORD Up!    
“Love Finds You In Victory Heights, Washington” by Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss is a touching story of wartime loss and love that paints a picture of real life history.  This beautifully written tribute to the patriotic men and women of World War II is an enlightening journey for the historical romance reader. I am especially impressed because this novel was written by two authors. How do they do that and make the prose and dialogue flow so well? This is a thoroughly enjoyable book that I highly recommend for a weekend of entertaining reading.

Mindy at A Room Without Books Is Empty    
I have never read anything by either of these authors but will be looking out for other books by them.  I loved reading about a woman who stepped up during a trying time in our country's history to do what needed to be done.  I don't think enough has been said about these women during that time in history.  Of the course the added romance was a bonus.  A Great book that teaches us to rely on God.

Molly at Book Reviews by Buuklvr81    
They are absolutely the perfect combination for co-authors. These talented women write as one and know what will capture their readers' hearts! This dynamic duo knew how to hook readers with their fantastic Love Finds You in Lonesome Prairie, Montana, and they've done it again with Victory Heights, Washington. These talented ladies have taken amazingly crafted characters, an incredible era in time, fabulously thorough research, a lesson in letting go and moving on, and created a romantic, heart capturing story full of God that readers can both laugh and cry through. The use of the "Rosie the Riveter" was stunning and makes the story that much more engaging! I fell in love with everything about this novel! This is worthy of 5 star praises and so much more! It's an excellent addition to both a home library and the Love Finds You collection. It's also one of those books that would make a stunning Hallmark movie! I recommend this novel to everyone, especially if you've never read a Love Finds You book. You won't be sorry that you did and I'm sure, like me, you'll be anxiously awaiting another novel penned by these fantastic ladies!

Beckie at RBC Library
The latest in the Love Finds You series is a sweet romance.  I also found the authors really did their homework.  From the slang of the day to the information about the camouflage of the Boeing plant, the novel brings back a day when men fought for what was right and women sacrificed to support them.  This story shows a glimpse of an era when patriotism was popular and people did what ever it took to keep America safe.   Take a trip to Victory Heights, it will be well worth your time.

Christine at The IE Mommy        
Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss create likeable and loveable characters in their latest “Love Finds You” novel. Love Finds You in Victory Heights will warm your heart, delight your soul and interest your mind. A triple threat in print.

Michelle at New Horizon Reviews    
I was on the edge of my seat from cover to cover. The authors, Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss, use vivid language to bring this story to life. At times I wanted to cry, other times I had to smile as I was reminded of God and His faithfulness. I give this novel five stars for the thorough research that has been done to bring this story together. I recommend it to anyone who likes romance novels set in that time period.

Katy at A Few More Pages        
This was a lovely romance in a great setting that really kept me turning the pages.

Crystal At My Reading Room    
It's a beautiful love story set in a time when national pride was at an all-time high.  However the author pair does not gloss over the whole situation, they show that there were people that weren't so great as well. The shining examples are the main characters who learn through the book about God's will in their lives, both personal and professional.

Jody at The Corner Book Blog
I really loved this book. It's a light read but there's a lot of historical information that is very interesting. The authors descriptions made me feel like I was there as Kenny and Rosalie were dancing, feeling the emotions of the war rallies and helping as Rosalie volunteered her time with the soldiers. I highly recommend this book.

Stacie at Hobbit Door        
It was a very cute book. I really enjoyed that it took place in our new backyard. It gave me some great ideas about places to visit. I enjoyed reading the book and actually knowing some of the places they were describing. I love reading about the time period it was placed in--WWII. It was a unique picture of what was going on in our country at that time.

Elizabeth at Elizabeth at Count It All Joy    
Love Finds You in Victory Heights, WA was a fun read that was obviously well researched.  I thoroughly enjoyed the slang terms from the era, including hearing Rosalie referred to as “Doll.”  And when one of her friends says “Look at you, sweets. You’re over the moon.” I couldn’t keep the grin from my face.  The dances, the music, the willingness of the girls in the story to do their part to welcome the “boys” home from war.  It really is great to see how a community can all come together.

 I loved reading LOVE FINDS YOU IN VICTORY HEIGHTS, WASHINGTON. I also enjoyed reading the blurb at the front of the book telling about this real life suburb of Seattle.

Janet Ruth at Along the Way            
This story was written with historical accuracy, a little romance, and lovable characters that I could easily relate to.  An awesome combination that I really enjoyed!

Christy at Southern Sassy Things        
War stories aren't for everyone, and even though they fire up a great sense of patriotism in me, I find that I have to take them in small doses.  This story was perfect for me in that, there wasn't a lot of "war" in it.  Rather, I knew it was something that everyone was aware of, and all the characters were just trying to make it through another day the best they knew how.  I took with me more than just the romance from this story; I took away pride for my country, and the sacrifices that so many soldiers offered.

Jettie at jettiesramblings.com
A very well written book, and it is seamless, you cannot tell a difference in the writing styles of the 2 authors.  

Carly at Carlybird's Home        
I love historical novels set during World War II and I love the writing team of Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss. And of course, you can’t go wrong with a Love Finds You story. All these factors come together to make for a story that took me back to a time and place when the world was in turmoil, but life in America was simpler and patriotism was strong. Rosalie was a strong and loyal woman dealing with the death of her fiancé on the battlefield and Kenny was a man seeking his purpose, a man with secrets of his own. Both of these characters were easy to like and their chemistry felt natural. The authors did a fantastic job with that. The romance never felt forced or fake. This book also had a lot of humor and light moments that you would expect in everyday life. I really enjoyed the balance of romance, humor, and historical accuracy. This book had a charm about it that stayed with me even after I finished reading it. I really enjoyed everything about this book and I highly recommend it to romance fans and historical fans. This writing team knows how to write a story that will appeal to a variety of readers.

Leticia at My Daily Trek    
This book is a great tribute to each and every person who contributed their time and effort to help the United States win the war.  Tricia and Ocienna did a superb job and I hope many of my readers will take the time and read this book.

Urailak AT Living for God
Another great read from this talented duo!

Mel @ Real Heart Prints            
I really enjoyed this book, especially because of the setting and the time period in history.  Tricia and Ocieanna have written a very captivating story that is filled with tidbits of history, as well, just from their research and interviews with some of the women whose lives inspire this story.  They also have made the story very real, entertaining, and sometimes very humorous. I highly recommend it.

Cindy at Cindy's Reviews        
I loved "Rosie the Riveter" and truly enjoyed this book.  It was a easy read, and I truly did enjoy learning more about the young ladies who kept our nation going while our boys were off to war.  Thanks for a great book!!

8/27
Heather at Mommy Of 1 and Counting    
The book is seamless and you can not tell that 2 authors wrote it. It's all meshed so well together.  The romance never felt fake or forced. I believe it was REAL. It felt real to me, like it really could've happened. This book had a lot of humor in it as well. This is a book that I could see really happening and from beginning to end I was intrigued the entire time. It is a truly good read and you need to pick yourself up a copy!

Jennifer at Irish Splendour            
Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss brilliantly make the story come to life with incredible details and accuracy of the early 1940's surrounding the War. Lingo of the day is pleasantly utilized from "bee's knees", " hotsy totsy" to "sassafras" and "fiddlesticks". The clothing and "jitterbuggin'" are the icing on the cake. You find the main characters "cut a rug" at The Jolly Roger or "lollygagging" around at The Igloo. The dazzling appearances of Lana Turner, Bob Hope, and my favorite, Ginger Rogers are the cherry on top of this vintage romance. I am deeply gratified that the romance keeps you on the edge of your seat from the very start to the absolute finish. Goyer and Fleiss include such "riveting" scenarios to keep you wondering until the lovely book's final page. Much sleep lost and many obligations ignored, I could not put this book down nor wait to pick up where I left off to find out the next enticing scene between Rosalie and Kenny. Love Finds You in Victory Heights, Washington is one of those tales you wish would never end, with the finely molded characters lingering in your subconscience for a considerable amount of time to come.

Lauri at Knits Reads and Reviews            
Tricia Goyer nad Ocieanna Fleiss captivated me in their newest book. 'Rosie the riveter' is one girl who charms many, and she charmed me as well.  This book brings you into the lives of the women left behind, but all is not sad and forlorn, and with Rosalie as the main character you can't help but laugh at her antics. Heartbreak, hope and love are what this story is about and you won't be disappointed as you travel to Seattle in the year 1942 and shoot rivets with Rosie!

Lori at Love, Honor & Stick Together    
It's refreshing and sweet to read about innocent love stories from this era that are free from the sometimes vulgar and value-less "love" stories so prevalent in today's culture. I enjoyed Rosalie's growth throughout the book. She overcame guilt, avoidance, selfishness and fear. The story of faith, hope and learning to trust again kept me eager to read more.

8/28
Pamela at Daysong Reflections             
Love Finds You In Victory Heights, Washington  is a fabulous story with so much detail about the Seattle, Washington area, an inside look at the airplane plant, and the lives of the women who kept things going. Club scenes, dance and clothing descriptions, period slang,  talk of rationing, and many other details made the story come alive. Love Finds You In Victory Heights, Washington is one of the absolute best novels I have read about the WWII years. This is one book that is definitely worth picking up. I highly recommend it.

Andi @ Radiant Light         
It was very enjoyable and kept me hooked from page one til the last sentence. I couldn't tell who was writing and that was also a great thing as with co-authored books sometimes they can be stiff, and this wasn't. I highly recommend this one!

Marissa @ The Review Stew 
I love books based during WWII and this book hit just the right spot for me! It had a great mix of romance, history, feminism, and friendship! I love the main character Rosalie and learning about her struggles, accomplishments, relationships, and love! What a great time period for women and showing how strong and capable we are! This book also had a wonderful Christian atmosphere and really showed how important trusting it is to trust God! I loved that! I recommend Love Finds You in Victory for all historical fiction lovers and romance lovers! This was a great book!

Angie at Never A Dull Moment            
If you love a good romance then I recommend this book.

JHS @ Colloquium             
Against the backdrop of actual events, Goyer and Fleiss have created a cast of fictional characters that are covincingly authentic. Painstakingly researched and accurate to the last detail, Love Finds You in Victory Heights, Washington draws the reader back through teh decades to a time when Americans were united in a common goal and everyone was called upon to do his/her part to bring victory. Goyer and Fleiss expertly examine the emotional struggles their characters are facing by revealing their inner dialogue, as well as their silent prayers. The story is mesmerizing because the characters are intriguing and relatable, whether or not the reader shares their religious outlook.

Christy at Christy's Book Blog    
The authors do an amazing job of bringing WWII Seattle to life with lots of slang, as well as the problems the characters face in day-to-day life. From prejudice on the job, to worry over every newspaper article to the nightclubs where everyone dances as if there's no tomorrow, the reader is pulled into this world and just may never want to leave.

Kat at Heart 2 Heart          
I must say I loved it. A perfect 5 out of 5 stars for keeping the reader engaged in the story of both Rosalie and the reporter Kenny as well as all the local supporting characters.

Kay@My Random Acts of Reading    
It's been a long time since I read a historical novel that included a romance. It's also been a while since I read what I would consider inspirational fiction. I hesitate to use a "label", but that describes Love Finds You in Victory Heights, Washington. I truly enjoyed my time in 1940's Seattle. This is a sparkling book written by Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss. It kept me interested. It made me feel good.  It lifted my spirits. In short, I loved it.

I loved how this book transported me back to the World War II era! There were various historical details, from the setting to the characters’ dress and speech, which added to my enjoyment of the book.

Tammy at Tammy's Book Parlor
This is a delightful read with comedy & romance (not sappy) and about the lives of the women in the factories plus how they had to ration everything. This was a sad time in our history but together Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss write a beautiful, flowing 5 star story.  A story that brings out the best in us and makes us proud to be Americans and women!

Edna at My Favorite Things             
A great read for historical lovers and for people that was born during this time.

As a historian and avid book reader, I found myself lost in the wonderful world of American life at home during World War II.  I love it when authors use real facts about certain time periods in order to give readers a glimpse into "the life and times" of an era while at the same time providing an excellent read.  And let me tell you--Tricia Goyer and Ocieanna Fleiss hit the mark on both counts with Love Finds You in Victory Heights, Washington! It's simply amazing how Goyer and Fleiss put this book together.  It's a must read!

Jennifer at Adventures in Unsell land
I had a hard time putting this book down. It kept me up way too late on several evenings, leaving me constantly on the edge of my seat. I love the era in which this story is set. An enthralling World War 11 romance, Love Finds You in Victory Heights made my heart smile big.
