How many lives can a young woman live? Imogen Sulley has lived through so many already. A life of loss, a loss of childhood and her own self-worth, but can she find hope again in a new life in the unlikeliest places? Before Imogen could tell her best friend Matteo she loved him, he joined the army hoping to provide for a life with her. But after years of being away from his one true love, Matteo believed Imogen was better off without him. Imogen's life crumbled the day Matteo left her, and soon after, her father's death forced her to leave college, leading to a relationship of convenience with a co-worker who became jealous and controlling. When it seems like Imogen has no one she can turn to, an opportunity at a retirement home opens the door to new friendships, wisdom that comes with age, love stories during a time of peril, and a renewed passion for writing and poetry. Best of all, hints of her past start appearing. Matteo may be closer than she thinks, and a way out of her bleak life may exist. Based on the true WWII stories shared by the author's grandparents, Flour Sugar and a Tiffany Ring is a tale of two romances, actual events based in the UK during WWII and a fictional one in present-day Fairfax, VA. It's a testament to how true love and the magic of life can unfold in the most inconceivable ways.
