An RNA Romantic Novel Award nominee.

Heartbroken and hoping for a new start, Abi Howes takes a summer job in rural France at the Château Bellevue. The old château echoes with voices from the past, and soon Abi finds herself drawn to one remarkable woman’s story, a story that could change the course of her summer - and her life.

In 1938, Eliane Martin tends beehives in the garden of the beautiful Château Bellevue. In its shadow she meets Mathieu Dubosq and falls in love for the first time, daring to hope that a happy future awaits. But France’s eastern border is darkening under the clouds of war, and history has other plans for Eliane...

When she is separated from Mathieu in the chaos of German occupation, Eliane makes the dangerous decision to join the Resistance and fight for France’s liberty. But with no end to the war in sight, her loyalty to Mathieu is severely tested.

From the bestselling author of Sea of Memories comes the story of two remarkable women, generations apart, who must use adversity to their advantage and find the resilience deep within.

This is a decent story completely ruined by the awful and totally unnecessary attempt at an accent by the narrator. Such a shame as it completely spoilt my enjoyment of the book.

Ruined by narrator

Ruined by the narrator's French voice. I think it was a French accent, but just dropping the H in words does not make it French. There are also sentences that are in French and English which makes even more annoying. I nearly gave up on the book in the 2nd chapter but I am pleased I didn't. Keep listening, it is a good story in the end. If the narrator was changed I may have given this book 5 stars for the story.

Interestingly intertwined story of 2 women’s lives: One modern day one as war begins for the village.
Lovely descriptions of French rural life.
I felt very calm hearing this book, and have spent a fair amount of time imagining I was there.

Calming listening
