The golden skies, the translucent twilight, the white nights, all hold the promise of youth, of love, of eternal renewal. The war has not yet touched this city of fallen grandeur, or the lives of two sisters, Tatiana and Dasha Metanova, who share a single room in a cramped apartment with their brother and parents. Their world is turned upside down when Hitler's armies attack Russia and begin their unstoppable blitz to Leningrad.Yet there is light in the darkness. Tatiana meets Alexander, a brave young officer in the Red Army. Strong and self-confident, yet guarding a mysterious and troubled past, he is drawn to Tatiana—and she to him. Starvation, desperation, and fear soon grip their city during the terrible winter of the merciless German siege. Tatiana and Alexander's impossible love threatens to tear the Metanova family apart and expose the dangerous secret Alexander so carefully protects—a secret as devastating as the war itself—as the lovers are swept up in the brutal tides that will change the world and their lives forever.

I’m quite puzzled. This book was highly recommended. I decided to read it, along with others that were listed on Goodreads’ top 100 romance novels. I should have done a little more research before I dived into this novel because what I have found is that you either really enjoy this book or you ha...

DNF at 50%Now it's officially - I gave up. I wanted REALLY REALLY REALLY BADLY to love this book. I don't hate it. But...I don't like it either.I appreciate the work of the author. If this love story can encourage people to want to know more about the blockade of Leningrad, more about the WWII, then...

4.0 The Bronze Horseman
I finished reading this nearly a year ago and this book still sticks out in my head. This author really knows how to world build because I felt like I was right there in the war. I'm surprised there hasn't been a movie made based on these books. Tatiana and Alexander are two characters that I'll ...
