A Phoenix Soars — Noel Stevens

Luckily, Ian doesn't know what awaits him. Ian baffles Ingrid, she finds him so complicated. As a very small boy, Ian suffered through the London Blitz when they sent all the children to the countryside - his parents kept him with them in London. This book is a love story, with the word "love" barely spoken. The world they live in makes their minds unable to encompass love...they can't live freely. Theirs is a bridge to cross - to cross one day.
