This story about a daughter looking for the story behind the porcelain maker was beautifully written. While the daughter investigates the history of the porcelain artist, we are taken into the back story of her mother and father’s relationship which takes place during WWII and during the holocaust. Her parents were two lovers, both artists, one a German and one a Jew, who fell in love during a gruesome time in history and refused to let the situation separate them.

There were heartbreaking moments in the story and the tension was well done. I felt like I was rooting for them when the situations got dire. I enjoyed the idea behind the porcelain art. This story really broke my heart because I wasn’t expecting that outcome. This one will stay close to my heart for years to come.

Who should read this book: If you enjoy books about WWII, the holocaust, and something with a little bit of romance, this one is definitely worth a read.
