Yet, the deep love they once shared still lurks beneath the pain and bitterness that has festered over the years. When next they meet, several years later, each has undergone a transformation, making a reconciliation nearly impossible. The price each pays is devastating and life-altering. By using them in the first part of this book, Heath gives us an intimate look into a young, tender, and forbidden first love between Finn and his Vivi.before everything goes to hell, both believing they've been betrayed by the other. I'm not usually fond of flashbacks but they worked for me in this case. Heath filled me with just about every emotion possible with this tale. I was hooked from the opening pages and remained immersed in the story until the very end, not just reading about these characters but experiencing their journey with them. I usually enjoy Lorraine Heath's books but this one takes a special place among my Heath keepers.

They all take center stage in this beautifully written novel by Lorraine Heath.

Angst, betrayal, redemption, sacrifice, gut-wrenching emotion, and a cross-class, soul-stirring love that will rip your heart to shreds then slowly, carefully, completely, mend it back together, stronger than ever.
