This book isn’t long you sure can finish it in a day. In this day and age, something that takes you to another time and place showing that people who came through a very awful war that left so many with mental problems, nightmares, PTSD even though they didn’t know what that was at the time and seeing some come through it and find love and happiness together is a refreshing read. The book gives hope and a feeling that love with prevail. The characters are well written, you are invested in finding out how their story ends and it is a great read as usual. I love Jenna Brandt’s writing. This is a book in a series which I’ve not read any other books in the series and you don’t have to either, you’ll not miss anything.
I received an ARC from the author and have written this review of my own volition and all thoughts and comments on this book are my own and given freely.
