About this listen
Italy, 1943—Germany occupies much of the country, placing the Jewish population in grave danger during World War II.
As children, Eva Rosselli and Angelo Bianco were raised like family but divided by circumstance and religion. As the years go by, the two find themselves falling in love. But the church calls to Angelo and, despite his deep feelings for Eva, he chooses the priesthood.
Now, more than a decade later, Angelo is a Catholic priest and Eva is a woman with nowhere to turn. With the Gestapo closing in, Angelo hides Eva within the walls of a convent, where Eva discovers she is just one of many Jews being sheltered by the Catholic Church.
But Eva can't quietly hide, waiting for deliverance, while Angelo risks everything to keep her safe. With the world at war and so many in need, Angelo and Eva face trial after trial, choice after agonizing choice, until fate and fortune finally collide, leaving them with the most difficult decision of all.

Moving.
A beautiful story. Tainted by loss, heartbreak and truth. Saturated by love, a love that hopes all things, endures all things.

Amazing!!
Any additional comments?
A heartbreaking and confronting book that tore at my heart strings and left me choking back tears! I was amazed at the depth of this story and it's historical setting. I found it to be a real eye opener as to what happened during those horrific years in WWII and the lengths that certain individuals went to to help the Jews of Italy. Beyond this historical setting is the EPIC love story of Angelo and Eva - their forbidden love that was unconditional and unwavering. The epilogue brought tears to my eyes and left me with a sense of peace and serenity. I loved reading the author's note at the end, and finding out what inspired Amy Harmon to write this book.
