From the press release:
‘Poignant and page-turning, this latest novel from husband and wife writing team Stephen and Julie Carter offers an eloquent recounting of the chemistry that ignited between Angela and ‘Pele’ in childhood and continues to flicker for the next forty years.
The heart of this novel is all about love at first sight, immersing readers in the realities of growing up in a northern working-class town in the 1960s and 1970s. When fate intervenes, they discover that forming romantic relationships with other people isn’t easy when the deep connection to each other refuses to break.
The plot unfolds in six chapters—starting in 1969 and concluding in 2010. The descriptive detail of the novel’s protagonists and the northern working-class environment is nostalgic, authentic and beautiful.’
