Another book in the series and the second one that I've read.
The story is very good and I love the Brogan family as much as ever. However, it didn't grab me as much as the first one did. I liked most of the story but there were parts of it that just didn't appeal to me.
Stella's true colours appear in this one and she is revealed in all her hateful glory. One of the nastiest characters I've read about in some time.
The romance between Francesca and Leo didn't ring true for me. There was no spark. He wasn't even a really likable person.
Queenie is still one of my favorite characters and I actually went back and reread the scene in the pub with Stan. Brilliant!!
Saying that, I hope there's another book to come as there is still so much to be settled. I'd recommend this to anyone who loves books set in the War years and telling the story of the hardship of ordinary everyday people through an extremely trying time in their lives.
