About this listen

An extraordinary tale of love, desire and forgiveness from the number-one best-selling author of Songs of love and War.

Sofia Solanas grows up on a beautiful ranch in the middle of the Argentine pampa. In a world of old-fashioned values, she carves out a place as a rebellious and passionate young woman. But eventually, her stubborn nature leads her to trouble....

When Sofia’s mother Anna discovers that Sofia has embarked on a forbidden love affair, she must act in order to save the family from shame. She sends Sofia to Europe - away from her friends and family and the man Sofia loves. But then, more than 20 years later, a family tragedy calls Sofia home, and she must discover if her passion still lives on....

Reduced to a blubbering wreck again at the end of this wonderful saga of family, loss and love. The characters spring to life and story line so true. I absolutely adored it, as I have with the others, books of hers I have read.

Overall I stuck with this book, a good storyline, but it’s very long and slow in places. Maybe that’s because it’s in audio book, not sure I’ll listen to any more. I live in Ireland and found the Irish accents inconsistent and irritating. I listened to the interview with the author at the end and learned that she just starts writing and develops the story without in depth research and doesn’t have a plan necessarily - I think that shows. I enjoy epic historical novels. She’s very successful so obviously it’s a winning formula for some readers.

Well written and acted

I really can’t get enough of Santa Montefiore. Every book is so magical and simply transports me to another time and another place.

Fabulous author!

Read it as a young girl, it's even better now that I have more worldly experience. Truly beautifully written, engaging and an emotional rollercoaster.

My favourite book of all time...
