Summary
A sweeping story of love that stretches across the years from the number-one best-selling author of Songs of Love and War.
The war has ended, and Rita Fairweather is waiting for George Bolton, her childhood sweetheart, to return home to Devon. She wants their future to be a continuing reassurance of their past. But George comes back as a man changed by the horrors he has experienced.
Unable to settle back into a small-town life, George decides to travel to Argentina. And Rita promises to wait. But George faces irresistible temptation and an agonising choice. As the years pass, Rita keeps her word, but how long should she wait for the love of the life?

It was....
a nice enough story can't say it with the best story I've listened to but it was ok. The narrator was very good at using different voices for the characters.

Family history and heartbreak
A really pleasant read, plenty of family relationships and when lives turn around you always want the happy ending. A very well written book and great story line over many years.

A most moving story, with many characters
The author covers quite a long period of finding the lives of her characters. But as always the attention to detail is perfect.

Lovely romantic story
Another great book by the author. She manages to take you into the era of the story and you can almost feel and smell the surroundings. I find myself escaping when I listen to her books.

Another hit
I have read many of her books and they’re all great. This one is no exception . She keeps you guessing right to the end and the narrator makes book even better.
