The Girl with the Violin

By Glenda Poulter

What if the love you lost was never truly gone at all?

A tender, multigenerational story about forbidden love, second chances, and the enduring power of family.

At ninety-four, Evie never expected a forgotten box of black-and-white photographs to reopen the greatest love of her life.

Decades ago, she was torn from Freddy by a homophobic father and forced into a marriage she never wanted—losing hope that she would ever see the woman she loved again. Now, as the past resurfaces, Evie’s memories reveal a story of heartbreak, resilience, and a love that refused to fade.

Her great-granddaughter Grace and Grace’s partner, Taylor, soon discover that sometimes memories can spark miracles. As they work to bring Evie’s story back to life, they struggle to build their own future—supported by Grace’s two mothers, who help guide both the older and younger generations through grief, joy, and everything in between.
