Comfort Me with Apples
It’s the dawn of the 20th century, but Anna and Dorrie Furlong , young daughters of a Liverpudlian ship captain with archaic ideals, are expected to remain at home in Everton until they are wedded. Dorrie, beautiful and popular, with multiple admirers, is content to do this, but idealistic, intelligent Anna hates her narrow life and longs for freedom and independence. As both sisters struggle against their situations, love will find them as if by accident, and after much hardship and sadness, they will both begin to realise where true happiness lies… A touching love song to Liverpool, Elizabeth Murphy’s Comfort Me With Apples is an emotional, touching tale, perfect for fans of Katie Flynn, Helen Forrester and Lyn Andrews

1st book read by Elizabeth Murphy but definitely not my last.
A lovely story if 2 sisters that are so close
but then due to situations become so distant with each other through jealousy and guilt
Then both end up with the love of their lives and come together as one big family of love
Forgetting the heart ache that each one went through over the years
Fantastic read x
