Author Susanna Bavin (who also writes as Polly Heron and Maisie Thomas) introduced The Sweetheart Locket to her readers, calling it “a dual-time story of family and romance, love and loss, loyalty and longing [as well as] a story of profound courage.”

She also says it’s written “with compassion and understanding” and is “a warm, absorbing, beautifully crafted story that will linger in your heart long after you finish it.”
