The Man She Had to Save

Spain, 1945: My heart pounds in my chest as I stand between my brother and the man I love. This is the moment I have been dreading since the war began. Because now I must choose who to save…

Vivi stands in the dark silence of the Spanish night, a warm breeze lifting her hair from her shoulders. As she watches the lights of a truck crest the horizon, she sees her lover, Emilio, at the wheel. From his expression, she instantly knows who is with him, and her heart breaks.

Vivi thinks back to the whispered conversations she shared with Emilio, the hours she spent fearing this very moment. And although she knew this day might come, she still gasps as Emilio pulls her beloved older brother from the truck.

She wants to rush to him, like she did when she was a little girl. She longs to wipe the blood from his face, as he took care of her when they were children. But she remembers his allegiance to the Nazis, and everything he has done in their name, and her heart hardens once more. The silence echoes as both men stare at her, waiting for her to speak.

Now, she has to choose. Should she try to save the life of the brother she has always loved? Or will she choose the only man who has ever truly loved her? And when this war is finally over, will she be able to live with her choice?

A heartbreaking and emotional page-turner about how true love can triumph against evil. Perfect for fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Nightingale and The Book of Lost Names.
