What a wonderful treat to be able to revisit the Perez sisters/family!

Barcelona, 1964

The book begins when Isabel Perez travels to Barcelona to save her sister, Beatriz. While there she is joined by an unlikely ally and learns a little3 more about her family’s history.

Barcelona, 1936

Alicia Perez has traveled from Cuba to Barcelona with her young daughter in tow. But soon violence breaks out in Spain, and she is reunited with someone from her past.

In this book Isabel and Alicia’s story lines intertwine.

Chanel Cleeton is such a gift writer who has done an impeccable amount of research in writing this book I really enjoy when I not only learn, but I am also entertained and moved by books and this one fit that bill!

I found this book to be gripping from the beginning. I enjoy her use of history and how it shapes her character’s lives. Cleeton never disappoints and she nailed it once again in this book. I already have my hopes up that she will have another book out soon!

If you have not read her work, I highly recommend doing so.

Gripping, beautifully written, evoking emotion and hard to put down!

Thank you to Stephanie Felty, Berkley Publishing Group, Berkley and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
