Nadine Taylor is the author, editor and ghostwriter of more than twenty books including New York Times bestsellers and national bestsellers.

…and when a fiery plane crash kills a World War II pilot, a young marriage dies as well. What the pilot’s wife does with her life and how he remains a part of it are major themes in If My Heart Had Wings. And the characters are just as compelling as the story: each one is trapped in an time when courage, stoicism, and practicality spawn family secrets, lies, denial and abuse.
