    Summary

    Sequel to If Not For The Storm (you don’t need to have read that necessarily).

    As peace returns to Darrowby, Audrey and Siegfried are settling into married life, while Tristan and Edward discover that moving on is not always easy.

    Quiet, withdrawn, and carrying more loss than any child should bear, a young Blitz orphan named Chloe finds comfort among the animals of Skeldale House—and the family she discovers there.

    Together, they learn that home is not always where you begin, but where you belong.
