This book is classed as historic romance, but it deserves so much more than that.
The romance in this book covers probably 10% of the book. The story was beautiful and sad and just great.
This book coversWorld War One, old class system, ballet, shell shock, death, child neglect, child loss, miscarriage, Cancer, suicide, mental health issues, asylums, adoption, rape, violence, blackmail, bullying, and family drama spaning generations.
I cried and it takes a lot for me to cry at a book. I cried several times.
I have enjoyed every Lucinda Riley I have so far read. Its a easy read but covers some tough subject matter at times, definitely worth the read.
