Publisher's summary

A moving tale of desire, burning secrets and forbidden love under the Cypriot sun.

From Nadia Marks, the best-selling author of Among the Lemon Trees and Secrets Under the Sun, comes Between the Orange Groves, a moving tale of desire, burning secrets and forbidden love. The perfect listen for fans of Victoria Hislop and Santa Montefiore.

In a small village, set among the wild mountains of Cyprus, two families of different faiths share a seemingly unbreakable friendship based on mutual respect and deep affection. Mothers and daughters share their daily secrets, fathers and sons support each other as they live their lives between the fragrant pine trees and orange groves. It’s here that two boys, Lambros and Orhan, grow up side by side, as close as brothers. Their lives are inextricably linked, but as their fortunes shift and time passes, an unforgivable act of betrayal takes place, setting in motion a chain of events that tears the two friends and their entire families apart....

Many decades later and now an old man living in London, Lambros decides to share his painful memories with his daughter Stella, transporting her back to an island brimming with passion and at its heart a scandal that still haunts those involved. Is it too late for forgiveness? Or can the next generation embark on a journey of their own to help mend the damage done all those years ago?

Couldn't keep my attention

So I am only half way through this book and am giving up. It is a nice story but nothing much happens. It takes place over a couple of generations and the friendships are warm and family is nice. It is just taking so long for anything to take place. I am not returning it but will probably finish it at some later time.

Nostalgic and tragic!

As an American/Cypriot, reading this story brought back memories I have as a child growing up in Cyprus. The narrative has always been that Turkey is an enemy but this story gave me the inside look into a Turkish family and that we’re more alike than different. Turks and Cypriots shared a land but not a religion. All families long for love and family and to live in peace. I loved this story and felt like I was there as a part of these families!
