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.

The Swallow and the Hummingbird
Another wonderful book written by Santa Montiferori. Expertly narrated by Juanita McMahon telling the story of two families. I really like her style of writing and was sad when it finished.

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.

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 great story by Santa Montefiore
This is another book by Santa Montefiore, these books take a little time to attach the imagination but it's well worth taking the time with it.
