There, she met Melanie Hamilton and Rhett Butler who Scarlett had hated since the party although he loved her.But as time passed , Scarlett began to love him . When Ashley came back from the war (because this story is developed simultaneously with a war) Scarlett realized she kept on loving him.
I have liked this novel a lot because it is a mixture of love and history. I love romantic novels and with this book, apart from enjoying the love story, I have also learnt American history.
