I loved this book! The author is a brilliant writer. She depicts incredible true history of the Breakers Hotel, Palm Beach in WW II, as well as the Russian tsars of St. Petersburg in 1920â??s. She moves flawlessly from the family line in the 1920s to 1940s to 1970s. It has some beautiful family moments of love, heartbreak & secrets! I appreciated her good writing, time travel, interesting historical facts, & family connections. I would definitely recommend it & canâ??t wait for a new book!
