A review by simplyxkate
From Sand and Ash by Amy Harmon

5.0

I'm gutted. Bravo to Amy Harmon for creating a beautiful love story amidst one of history's ugliest moments. The love between Eva and Angelo, a Jewish woman and a Catholic priest in WWII-era Italy, is so unique and powerful, it inspires them to be brave and fight to survive when it seems there's nothing left to do but give up. I felt their pain and struggles as I was reading and I desperately hoped they'd find their way to a happy ending. This book was so hard to read being that it's heavily based on true events but it's so worth it. Highly recommended to anyone who loves historical fiction/romance.
