Review:

WOW! I was really blown away by this story. I've always loved Eugenia Riley's ability to pull you into the story, but she goes above and beyond in this one. I was immediately transported to the 1940s and could feel the hurt and fear that Mandy felt. If you love historical romance, read this!
