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

4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars 3 ratings

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.

    Great short story
  • Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2016
    I've read almost all of the Fall of Poppies anthology now. This is the first I've ever read of this particular author. I enjoyed the story. It was quite different from other stories set in this time as it is set in France and also the deep south of America. Different. I will look up other books from this author...
