****4 stars
I really liked this book. I was a bit hesitant when I read the book jacket and saw that it was about WWI and some about genealogy, but they really worked and I found myself very interested in the subject. I liked the characters and felt that they were very well done and terribly realistic.
Book Jacket Summary:
Lu Edwards may write and illustrate books for children, but she's certain she doesn't want children of her own. She believes in travelling light, with not even a goldfish to tie her down, until Nick – a WWI expert with more baggage than Heathrow, right down to the kids, ex-wife and hamster – blows into her life. He's absolutely not Mr Right, but as he helps Lu trace a strand of her family history, she finds herself being drawn into his chaotic but warm world. Being the wicked step-mother was never a role Lu fancied playing, though, and she's not sure that loving Nick will be enough for a happy ever after together...
