Great love story

One of my new favorite authors love this book and now want to read more about French wineries who helped with the resistance

Historical fiction set in france world war ll

What a Fabulous love, story, full of suspense, Love and Loss. It is set in the wine country of france , in the Champagne Region. It is told between the years of the beginning of the war and the very current 2019. It reads like an Epic love story movie, Like " Gone with the wind" between two married couples , where the husband and wife , belonging to the other husband/ other wife have an affair....that leads to a baby...to decisions made, that changes the course of all their lives forever. It is heart wrenching how in making these decision's, nothing turns out good for the two married couples involved.The secrets, the deception, the lies, the war and the Germans bearing down on them.. all lead to a very heartbreaking epic fallout...That is so terribly tragic.! There is SO much to this book, and the story on a whole... you couldn't possible begin to describe it all. I stayed up last night reading to 3:15 in the morning..and tonight to 1:30, and finally finished it .You would NOT be sorry reading this gut wrenching story..I can see it being made into a movie! If I could I would absolutely ,without a doubt , Give this more than 5 stars! Fantastic Author, and gifted writing and story telling.This is my second read by her, and to tell the truth I would read Anything She's ever written !!! Loved, Loved, Loved It !!!
