Across the Divide: The Strangest Love Affair by Elizabeth Bernays was recently reviewed by Kirkus Reviews!

Here’s a snippet:

Through it all, Bernays remains refreshingly candid about the human condition—about the nuances of what makes one feel valued as an individual, whether it’s through talent or experience. Fans of slow-burn love stories will also enjoy following the couple’s increasing emotional and physical intimacy.

A touching remembrance about two people who went through a lot to find each other.
