This book drew me in from the start and kept me intrigued for the entire read. The way Linda interwove the two storylines, one involving the 1930's, and the other involving contemporary times, was seamlessly, cleverly done. It's a unique story that keeps you rooting for the two romantic couples, but the book is much more than about these two relationships. You also care deeply about the two young boys, Jack and Zeke, whose storylines thread throughout the book as well. She makes the backdrop of Florida, then and now, a part of the character of the book. You also face the horror of the KKK and organized crime alive and well in Florida in the thirties. She pulls it all together in an entertaining, unexpected way. I think it's a great book for anyone who loves to be taken into a great  read.
