Coming Home To Holly Close Farm by Julie Houston . Review

This was such a terrific story about two  members of one family especially the great grandmother Madge and great granddaughter,  architect Charlie . The story flips back and forth in time , in the past we see Madge as a young woman doing her bit for the war effort , and in present day we meet Madge again but in her 90’s , living in retirement home since she had some ill health , but all in all a well abled woman who still has all her faculties and is surrounded by her loving family.  Charlie her great granddaughter is having a lot of problems in the love department and a change of scene is needed so she is off home to stay with her family and rebuild her self esteem . These two women need each other at this time of their lives and that makes the story so special. Madge was a fascinating character and I truly loved her , especially her back history , it was completely romantic and heart warming  . Charlie was a delight to get to know and it was great seeing her grow as a character . This was a story I would recommend to anyone , the importance of family , history and love is ageless .
