"After a crushing betrayal by the man she loves, Gillian Gibbons flees to her family home for a much-needed escape, but when she finds an old photograph of her grandmother in the arms of a Nazi officer, Gillian's life gets even more complicated. Rattled by the discovery, Gillian attempts to unravel the truth behind the photos, setting her off on an epic journey through the past... 1939. England is on the brink of war as Vivian Hughes falls in love with a handsome British official, but when bombs begin to fall and Vivian's happy life is destroyed in the blitz, she will do whatever it takes to protect those she loves... As Gillian learns more about her grandmother's past, the old photo begins to make more sense. But for every question answered, a new one takes its place. Faced with a truth that is not at all what she expected, Gillian attempts to shine a light not only on the mysteries of her family's past but also on her own future."--Publisher description.… (altro)

Historical fiction isn’t my favorite, but I loved the last book I read by this author so I gave it a shot. It’s just not my cup of tea, and the pacing felt off. Sometimes it’s thrilling to guess the plot twist before it happens, but in this case it happened early on and I kept waiting for anything more exciting. And while there was another twist I didn’t predict precisely, it wasn’t earth shattering. It’s not a bad book, but it wasn’t the best for me personally. ( )

Kind of sappy and predictable, but not painful.

WWII historical romance. Lots of family drama and skeletons in the closet. A few interesting bits about the German resistance; although the action takes place in Paris and England. An easy read. It is a dual timeline and the author is Canadian. 432 page ( )

This book was so good. It kept me guessing the entire book and there were times that I said “holy shit” due to the bombshell that was dropped in the book. This book kept me engaged and absolutely love how the writer told the story, alternating between Vivian and Gillian. This might be my new favorite WWII novel, due to the vivid storytelling. Highly, highly recommend this book! ( )
