For Beau Simon Gandossi Books

Quite a life! Quite a story!!
At first I thought perhaps this was based on the true life story of Sarah Ashdown. But as I looked for information to say this was her true story I found only “historical fiction” labeling it. It seems pretty accurate to true events but many miraculous escapes makes you realize it’s mostly fiction. It must be.
I didn’t care so much at times for the way it jumped from present day back to the war and vise versa. But once the story moved on and gathered some speed and excitement, I didn’t want to put it down. It was very well done and quite a story!
I don’t want to say much about the storyline. I see one reviewer gave line by line practically of the entire book. Why bother to read it after their commentary??
It is real to life, with the sorrow, the suffering, the conflicts within yourself as well as conflicting views with family members, friends and resistance fighters!! The one thing most everyone had in common was wishing the war would end as soon as possible. What a horrible time in history. No one you could trust, and trying times in every way. Imagine trying to keep a good outlook and smile on your face.

There were some misspellings and areas where it was hard to figure out the sentence but it was minor and still good reading.
If you are interested in this time period it is a book you won’t want to miss. The characters are very real in every area of the story. The circumstances and events are very real and you are drawn into the story as one taking part in things just as the other characters are. Drama, drama, drama. Love, hate, hope, despair, fear, arrogance, pride, passion, life and death, forgiveness and regrets!! And much more!

Enjoy!

For Beau Simon Gandossi Books Reviews

A strong proud woman getting her way into leaving her footprint in history. Simon Gandossi gives us a book full of feelings, it brings us in a journey through WWII Europe, making us literally live those days from a prominent point of view. I personally couldn't quit it until I read the last page. A reading I absolutely recommend to those who love good books. Good work Simon!
This is a great book it made me care about the characters and I couldn't put it down because I wanted to see what happened and how it was going to end
I don't normally write reviews, but I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed reading For Beau, it is well written and it is a book that you can not put down, you just need to know what happens.
This book will haunt you days after reading. I am still haunted. Set in Britton during the height of World War II for Beau tells the moving and compelling tale basically of women’s secret participation in the World War. Sarah Ashdown is found and her story is remarkably harrowing. Gandossi wraps history and fiction into a believability that harrowing and emotional. While this is historical fiction you can not forget that this fiction is not too far from facts. The character of Sarah Ashdown is probably based on a real person. I think that is what makes For Beau so heart turning.
Gandossi writes his words with passion making you unable to pull away. While I love history, historical fiction is not really my thing, yet Gandossi entertained me. Haunted me with his work. The only thing that bothered me was his use of italics. He used italics to represent the present and non-italics to represent the past. This disrupted my reading a bit for the editor in me would think the present would be in non-italics and the past in italics. That aside the book was enjoyable and Sarah Ashdowns patriotic tale will resonate with me for a while.
