Giveaway: JASMINE NIGHTS by Julia Gregson
Book Description:
At twenty-three, Saba Tarcan is a talented but naïve singer who longs to break free from her traditional Turkish father who refuses to allow her to sing in public. She jumps at the chance to join ENSA- the Entertainments National Service Association - and becomes part of a small theatrical company sent to entertain the soldiers at the height of the desert war in North Africa. Saba must leave behind a burgeoning love affair with Dom Benson, a young fighter pilot-- their attraction is instantaneous, but the timing is bad-- Saba is determined to pursue the independent life of a singer.
When Dom follows Saba to Cairo, the difficulties of combining their two intense lives are compounded. Dom, addicted to flying, refuses to stay grounded, while Saba embraces her new liberties and blossoms in her new life on the stage and the road. Because of her Turkish background and unique position as a performer, Saba is asked by the Secret Service to take part in a covert mission, as many singers were during World War II. She is sent to Istanbul to spy on a Turkish impresario and his associates. But it’s a mission that will jeopardize not only her own safety, but also the love of her life when she is forced to conceal her activities from Dom.
Set amidst some of the most exquisite and dangerous cities of the Middle East, Jasmine Nights is a passionate story bursting with life, love, and adventure.

This does sound like an interesting adventure. That is a part of WWII (Africa, etc) I've not read much about.
