I picked this book up randomly from the kiosk at the train station when I realised I had forgotten to take a book in my work bag.
The cover has the blurb "Two families - one rick, one poor - in peace, in war". This does pretty much sum the book up! It is a fairly predictable book about two families who lives are intertwined. The upper class Marchant family who live in the house. The Rowland family who serves them. The snobby Marchant daughter compared to the gentle Rowland daughter who wins everyone's heart. And of course World War II being the great leveller.
While the book may have been a little predictable in parts there were interesting storylines. A nice book for people who like romance stories set in this era.
