Mallory's Women (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

Gibson Mallory thought he would only ever come to love one woman, a nurse, Marina Ivanova, who he had evacuated on a commando mission from Guadalcanal during World War II. She had frustrated him, provoked him, amazed with her tenaciousness and stubbornness. He had rescued her from a cruel Japanese officer and found himself wanting her, loving her, even though she was older than he. Then she died. While one his last tour in Vietnam, her ghostly visits saved him from the war's blood-filled madness. Whe he returned home he reconciled himself to a sedate existence with his his sister in Bourke, Australia. Just when he thought he could handle the loneliness and the nightmares, Rose Farley flew into his sedate world--brash, cheeky, and having more secrets than a Chinese puzzle box. As he discovered each one, he knew he would never be the same--that he had come to love two women as deeply and as passionately as a man could.
