This novel, by bestselling author Alice Hoffman, opens just before World War II begins and follows the main characters as they find their way through a world at war. The world that they knew before no longer exists, and they learn to persevere in the face of unimaginable cruelty and loss. The book highlights the strength of the human spirit as the young are forced to grow up too fast and find happiness in the simple moments of daily life. Alice Hoffman is a master storyteller, and she weaves her signature brand of magical realism into this story that will stay with you long after you turn the last page.

They are extremely dark and rather than tell a story of two people destined for each other, they often explore what happens when dangerous people fall in love. Fisher has written 6 novels on her own, as well as co-writing the three young adult books in the Never Never trilogy with fellow romance writer, Colleen Hoover.
