Set during the English Civil War Hannah falls for Matthew, an apprentice cabinet-maker. When Matthew joins up to fight for the Royalist side Hannah is terrified. As he rides away, Hannah sadly wonders if he will ever come back - and if he does - how will her strict Puritan father ever let them be together? The world can be ending around you, but if you're in love nothing else matters...

This was really hard to get into, which is strange given that it is a short story. It all seemed a bit sudden and teenage girl "Daddy I love him" for someone you just met. If the story had been longer so there could be more backstory it would have been better. But I did finish it so it can't be all bad

Considering i know almost nothing about the English Civil War this was still an ok read but there is almost no introduction of the characters to each other. It seems a bit rushed. The story is a bit lame and repetitive for such a small book
