Here she falls passionately in love for the first time - however, it is a love that pushes her to behave in a way she never believed could be possible. And when her lover convinces her to accompany him into the dark underworld of desire in post-war France, Maria teeters on the edge of life itself.As Valentina uncovers the story of her grandmother, she begins to question how much one should change for love. For Theo has made a sexual request she's not sure she wants to fulfil - but if she refuses, she may never have a chance to show her love to him again.Evie Blake is from London.
