The family was in turmoil when Jonathon Roby announced to his family that they were moving to a small village community in the country. How could they give up all that they know and love?
Elizabeth, his wife, was making it much more difficult than it needed to be.
Elizabeth was very difficult to like. She was detached and cold. Was she a product of her own upbringing? Her husband, Jonathon, was quite the opposite. Thank goodness for their childrens' sakes. How in the heck did those two get married?
Valuable lessons were learned. Sacrifices had to be made. But with these sacrifices, the family did learn what was most important.
At times, I just wanted to shake Elizabeth. She was driving me crazy. I might have left her in London.
An interesting story set during WWII.
I received this book from Boldwood Books to review.
