pickNice combination of romance, history and art in a light hearted story between 1940 and recent times.
Plus an underlying ghost/religious theme.
Racing through this tale, full of passion and twists.
Long chapters but broken up with different character points of view.
Some very unpleasant male characters and a real contrast between 1940 women and today... but some sad similarities too.
Another one which flits between current times and another era, in this case 1940.
Bit of a ghostly aura, as well as women and society... And romance!

Don‘t think these necessarily look very happy!

Opening line:
"Lucy Standish was in the kitchen of the small flat above the art gallery in Westgate, Chichester, an open letter in her hand."
