Five Star Review: The Day the Flowers Died is a Wonderful Holistic Love story
This book is a rare historical romance told with flare and passion.
When I first received it I thought that it was going to be a dark and introspective
sort of history of two people…but it is so much more.
This book, which is fiction relates what it would have been like for two people,
with totally opposing cultures, who fell in love at the beginning of one of the
darkest periods in history…pre-war Germany.
Ami has enormous talent and she delivers a love story that is not only profound,
but engaging. I couldn’t put the book down and I am a very busy person with
almost no time to read…I almost wished I had gotten the audio version.
This is a must read for those that want to escape to another time…
it will change something deep inside of you in a very positive way

A Socially and Emotionally Sensitive Historical Fiction! (5 Stars)
The Day the Flowers Died is a brilliantly written, well-researched historical fiction. It takes us back to the Pre-Nazi time and when Hitler came into power in Nazi Germany. Dr. Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning tells us about the gruesome life at the concentration camps, Anne Frank’s Diary tells us about the life of Anne and her family during Nazi Germany, and this book tells us about the love story of Eli Levin, a young Jewish lawyer and Rebecca Baum, a newly graduated nurse from aristocratic, Catholic background. The story depicts how they overcame painful struggles to honor their love for each other and how they survived through the social prejudices of the time.
What I really liked about the book is it is so full of reality. You can readily relate to the facts and the fictions. Though the story ended in a sad note, yet there was a sense of hope and emancipation.

This is truly a love story. I love the way they meet and everything else. Your descriptions are brilliant.

I like the use of color. It opens the first scenes and is an ongoing theme. -B. J. Winters
You have something very special here. It is a world you could not have known personally, but which is completely believable and that is all writers aim to do, but only the really good ones can acheive it as well as you have. -Philip Carlton
