Belle and Emily Hastie's lives were so innocent, their world was magical and limitless . . . and then they grew up.
Set in the Northern hills of England in the late 1950's, this coming of age novel is about two sisters and the different choices that they make. Belle's only desire is to leave her confining village and become a doctor, Emily's is seemingly just the opposite -- to stay in Wethervale, get married and raise a family.
This is a tale of love and betrayal, of regret and redemption, and ultimately a loss of innocence. Through this journey, the sisters discover a deeper meaning of love and joy; a road of sacrifice, compromise, struggle and hope.
