In When the Clouds Roll By, by Myra Johnson, Annemarie Kendall is waiting for her fiancĂ©, Lt. Gilbert Ballard, to come back to Hot Springs, Arkansas.  He has been serving overseas in World War I.  He was injured in the war and is coming home, where he has decided to end his engagement to Annemarie.  Lt. Ballard’s new friend, Army Chaplain Samuel Vickary, tries to convince him that Annemarie will always love him.  Army Chaplain Vickary finds himself falling for Annemarie.

Annemarie is unsure about what she should do.  Her fiancĂ© doesn’t want to be engaged anymore and she is beginning to have feelings for his best friend.  What is she going to do?

About the Author- Myra Johnson currently lives in North Carolina with her husband and pets.  She has written several books and is active in local and national writers group.

My Thoughts- When the Clouds Roll By, by Myra Johnson, was an excellent post World War I book about young love.

I enjoyed this book very much.  I enjoyed the detail, dialogue, and each chapter seen from the viewpoint of a different character.  It was the attention to detail that first captivated me.  I felt as if I was there in Hot Springs, Arkansas with Annemarie Kendall and Lt.  Gilbert Ballard, seeing what they saw and tasting what they tasted.  The dialogue also intrigued me.  It helped me know Annemarie, Gilbert and Army Chaplain Samuel Vickary very well.

Although it took place after World War I, it reminded me of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and how the soldiers are coming home wounded.  I think many people would enjoy reading this book.  I highly recommend it.

Disclosure of Material Connection- I received When the Clouds Roll By by Myra Johnson for free from Abingdon Press and the Early Reader Program.  I was not required to write a positive review.  The opinions I have expressed are my own.  I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255.  All links were current when posted.
