Flora and Henry were born a few blocks from each other, innocent of the forces that might keep a white boy and an African American girl apart; years later they meet again and their mutual love of music sparks an even more powerful connection. What Flora and Henry don't know is that they are pawns in a game played by the eternal adversaries Love and Death, brilliantly reimagined as two extremely sympathetic and fascinating characters. Can their hearts and their wills overcome not only their earthly circumstances, but forces that have battled throughout history?

Oh the games Love can play and how ignorant we players can be! So beautiful...eloquent...a lovely piece of writing about true love.

And, Ch 21...OH MY! Be still my beating heart! I fell in love with this creative writing and artfully exquisite prose.

Go read this now, my peeps!
