Tempting The Stars - Book 2, #2 - E-book - ePub

The amazing story of one man's struggle to survive in a world which judges us by how we look. In "Tempting the Stars", the exciting and poignant sequel to "The Invisible Piper", we meet young Rob Adams again after he baled out of his burning Spitfire. However, he is rescued and is sent to one of the best hospitals in war-torn Britain - the Queen Victoria in East Grinstead. Here he meets the famous 'Guinea Pigs'; a group of burned men who were patients of the famous surgeon Archie McIndoe.
Although devastated by his burns, Rob has many people who love him: his devoted parents, his beautiful girlfriend Kate, his school-friend Colin and the lion-hearted 11 year-old Charlie Slater who has to overcome many problems of his own but is the person who helps Rob the most. At first Rob can't see any future, but as Aldous Huxley once said 'it is not how we cope with success that makes us strong, but how we cope with failure'   "Linda M James has created a testament to the power of the mind over the body."
