I will ask him if that is it. Thanks.
It was the not the right book. He enjoyed The Charioteer though and thanks you for the rec.He thinks the cover may be green or grey if that helps any.
It sounds like it could be one of Pat Barker's books. She writes about World War I and the "shell shock" that soldiers go through, and there is M/M romance in them."Regeneration" is the first in the series:

#2 is "The Eye in the Door:

So it was neither of those, but again he thanks you for my great books that have a similar theme.
It isn't on that list but he did find another book he was searching for so that was helpful.His other book was The Lie
He now tells me that one of the men was German and there was a woman and a child.
It flashes between future, past and sort of in-between.
Did your friend read this as a physical book?
I’m doing a quick look through looking for anything that jumps out as world war related but here’s a gay historical fiction list https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/5...
He remembers more about the cover.There is a man wearing a coat on it holding a letter, he is seen from the back.
It is definitely WWII.
The cover is dark green with like mist or something on it.
Probably not it but this one was published as a physical book in 2013, is WWII based, has an American and a German, and has tons of flashbacks. Lovers in Arms
No that it isn't it.I think it was publisher by a big publishing house if that helps any.
Strange Meeting?More homoerotic subtext than actual romance, though. If this was pubbed as a hardcover by a major publisher, then it's not a m/m genre romance. Should make it easier to find.

That isn't the correct book either but sounds interesting.
Fried says the title has road in it, he thinks.
I typed out the last comment and suddenly a title popped into my head and I think I figured it out. Will have to check but pretty sure it is:The Road Between Us

It was the right book and it was published by Doubleday which is a big publisher.
Yay, glad you found it!
He was almost correct about the cover. Except the man is seen from the front not the back.He was driving me nuts so I'm glad it suddenly clicked.
thanks for all the help and suggestions. He now has a larger reading list =)

So this was set in either WWI or WWII it was a MM romance.
It had a HEA and there wasn't a lot of angst in regards to their relationship more angst about the war.
Not sure but thinks it was written by a Brit, Aussie or Kiwi
Read it about 5 years ago maybe, but thinks it may have been older than that.
EDIT: cover green with a man wearing a coat on it.
Title has "road in it"
