Loved the romance, wit and quirky characters. Evie delivered the mail via bicycle & lived w/ her folks. Bernard, a London artist, came to the country to prepare for an art show. He worked at his paintings until Evie distracted him. Bernie grew up w/o a Mum & lacked social skills. Evie & parents hosted Bernie for dinner and Bernie did everything wrong.
Evie's BFF Cassie dined with 'sophisticated' friends in London and denied knowing Evie's name. What do friends owe each other? Loyalty? We saw post-war veterans try to re-integrate into the community. Bernie trained in the army for war, then the armistice happened. Some questioned his patriotism.
Bernie wrote 2 important letters and then accidently switched the envelopes.
A new author who wrote a good and satisfying first book. Kisses only. I look forward to learning more about this couple in bk#2.
