(image for) 5 of 5 Stars5 of 5 Stars A compassionate love story for the soul
I was curious about the story as soon as I saw the title and read the blurb, especially the setting. Ms. Britton pulls a reader right in and one must keep reading. The setting and the time intrigued me. War is hell and the world a hundred years ago lacked modern medicine. Oh, the passion of youth. I sympathized with Josephine immediately due to her rearing, and then was frustrated at times over her blunders as she cared for Geoff. But I have to think hard to remember my life at age 18. And I felt such compassion for him. Every time they went outside I expected a bear to appear. Their first month of seclusion, with his dependence on morphine, was rough on them both. His words, “I’m more alive now” settled sweetly in my soul. And then he laughed. I rooted for these two to overcome and mature and love from the moment they met. Highly recommended. I received an advance copy from the author. Opinions are mine alone.
