Two sisters Vianne and Isabelle are in living in the brink of WWII in France. Vianne lives in a small village and Isabelle is forced to go live with her and on her journey there she meets a man and they decide they want to make a difference in the war. Once she makes it to Vianne's house he leaves her telling her she isn't ready. Vianne's husband is sent off to war and her and her daughter must try and survive while the Nazis invade their town. Isabelle joins a group where they help American and British pilots that go down make it to safety.
Vianne and Isabelle are both strong and courageous woman for what they did to survive and help other people make it through the war. This book shows you how far you will go to protect your children. This is seriously a masterpiece that is a must read!! The ending had me in tears, tears of pain and tears of joy. Kristin Hannah's writing is beautiful and atmospheric, I literally felt like I was there with Vianne and Isabelle. This is another one of my all time favorite books!!
