Heart wrenchingly beautiful
Damn this book was just simply beautiful. I was about to turn another page before I realize that it was the end. I really didn’t want this story to end. Despite the time period where blacks and whites weren't allowed to love each other freely, John and Hannah never let that stop them from expressing their love for each other. I’m happy that John fought for what he wanted even when the odds were against them. Their love story was simply ahead of its time. I do hope Jonah, Mary and Sarah got the closure as well as new beginning they seek.

Obviously this story is a bit problematic considering the whole slave/ master relationship. However, I let go of that as the story went on. This story is extremely drawn out. Once once plot line ends another pops up and the story continues. It gets a bit ridiculous. So it's not terrible, but it's not a great love story either.
