After You've Gone : A Short Story from Fall of Poppies

Evangeline Holland

Evangeline Holland, author of the Bledington Park series, enchants readers with this poignant short story about a woman seemingly alone in terrible aftermath of the Great War and the man who proves she has more than she ever realized. War stole everything from Morven Williams—her husband, her friends, her livelihood, and her home. As Paris erupts in Armistice celebrations, she stands on the precipice of her past and her future, and the arrival of a handsome, charming Harlem Hellfighter stirs her spirit. But they share an unexpected link to her past—one that may tear their burgeoning romance apart forever. Originally published in the moving collection  Fall of Poppies: Stories of Love and the Great War , this e-book also includes an excerpt from Holland's novel An Ideal Duchess, available now.
