What war destroys, only love can heal.

Elisabetta, Marco, and Sandro grew up as the best of friends, whose fractuous friendship soon blossoms, with both Sandro and Marco hoping to win Elisabetta’s heart.

But as Mussolini asserts his power in 1937, aligning his Fascists with Hitler’s Nazis, this begins to change.

As anti-Semitism becomes policy, global war erupts and the Nazis invade Rome, the intertwined fates of the three will be decided, in a heartbreaking coming-of-age love story, exploring the best and the worst that the world has to offer.

Eternal is a tale of loyalty, loss, love and war – set in the Eternal City at its darkest moment. This moving novel will be forever etched in the hearts and minds of readers.
