Her first London Season has arrived, but Clare Compton is far from enthusiastic. In fact, she finds the experience positively nauseating, and when her first ball ends in disaster, the consequences threaten to upend her entire Season. She wants nothing more than to retreat to her country home away from Society’s judgmental stares. Instead, respite comes from a most unexpected source. Patrick Milton, Clare’s childhood enemy, offers a cunning solution: he will serve as her escort for the final five weeks of festivities to help repair Clare’s reputation.

After five years of tracking and capturing spies on English soil, Philip Jonquil, Earl of Lampton, is in pursuit of his last quarry. But at a traveler’s inn, he encounters an unexpected and far more maddening foe: Sorrel Kendrick, a young lady who is strikingly pretty, shockingly outspoken, and entirely unimpressed with him. Indeed, Sorrel cannot believe the nerve of this gentleman, who rudely accuses her of theft and insults her feminine dignity. Doubly annoyed when they both end up at a party hosted by mutual friends, Philip and Sorrel privately declare war on one another.

Honora Crauford relishes her life in India. So when her father informs her of his latest business transaction—marrying her off to a bankrupt nobleman in England—her only hope for returning home is to convince her betrothed that a marriage to her comes at a cost that not even the greatest fortune can justify. Graham Whitworth can hardly believe his wretched luck. It seems the only way to save his family’s insolvent estate is to comply with his father’s demands and marry the wealthy nabob’s daughter. But when Honora missteps, Graham discerns her farce and begins to see who she truly is.

In the eyes of London Society, Gillian Phelps is suitable enough. Though the ton whispers about her change of residence, any speculation remains just that: ballroom gossip.

Gillian has become adept at hiding the reality of her circumstances, but the close quarters of a house party will test her ability to conceal the crushing truth. And with so many people to deceive, the late arrival of another guest is a most unwelcome surprise.

Siblings Jett and Karri Farrow are struggling with life in their aunt and uncle’s home, but at least they’re together—until Jett suddenly disappears. No one will tell Karri what happened, so she takes matters into her own hands: she’ll find Jett herself. After hitchhiking as far as Las Vegas, her search has proven fruitless. She needs a job if she’s going to continue her quest to find her brother. Unfortunately, the job she takes may just destroy her.
De: Clair M. Poulson
Resumen del Editor
Based on the true story of two World War II heroines who risked everything to save Jewish children from the Gestapo by hiding them throughout Belgium.
Belgium, 1942.
Young schoolteacher Andrée Geulen secretly defies the Nazis in Belgium, who are forcing Jews to wear a yellow Star of David. Andrée is not Jewish, but she feels a maternal connection to her students, who are living in constant fear, and decides to take action. No child should have to suffer under such persecution. But what can one woman do against an entire army?
Ida Sterno is a Jewish woman who works with the Committee for the Defense of Jews in Belgium, a clandestine resistance group tasked with hiding children from the Gestapo. She wants to recruit Andrée because her Aryan appearance can provide crucial security measures for their efforts. Andrée agrees to join and begins work immediately by adopting a code name: Claude Fournier.
Together, Andrée and Ida, and their undercover operatives, work around the clock to move Jewish children from their families and smuggle them to safety through the secret channels established by the resistance. As each child is hidden, Andrée commits to memory their true name and history. Someday, she vows, she will help reunite as many of these families as she can.
But with the Gestapo closing in and the traitorous Fat Jacques who has turned from ally to enemy and is threatening to identify and expose any Jew he meets, Andrée and Ida must work even harder against increasingly impossible odds to save as many children as possible and keep them safely hidden—even if it might cost them their own lives.

Historia
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

A different perspective
This book deftly covered the stories of the challenges to families during the Nazi occupation of Brussels and the ordinary women who sought to help children to safety. It is a simple, heart-rending narrative of a horrific aspect of Nazi suppression. Caroline Hewitt vibrantly delivers all aspects of the characters beautifully, as usual.

Amazingly written
I absolutely love the way the author uses her words. She can describe what is happening in a way that makes you feel the emotion as if you were there. This is a beautiful story of bravery and dedication to saving the souls of innocent children. I loved hearing the afterwords as well. These people were true heroes!!!

Heart wrenching, inspiring, incredible
Despite the number of WWII historical fiction and nonfiction books books I have read, I am still astounded (floored, humbled, disgusted, saddened) at the atrocities and unfairness every time I read a new one.
Perhaps that makes me naive. Perhaps that makes me human. Or perhaps that shows the sheer scope of the Axis powers’ ability to brainwash their followers and treat other humans as animals. Worse than animals. And any book that specifically involves children really hits me hard. It’s rarely new information, but it’s heartbreaking every time.
The women in this story are incredible and I was awed by their sacrifices and the risks they took. Stories of good triumphing over evil exist in multitude because, I believe, most people want to see good win out. And this is a book of real people fighting back against an evil so persistent and dark it threatened everything. And yet they fought. Without thought to their own lives and safety, they helped rescue thousands of young children from the Nazi grip. That is powerful. That is incredible.
I was hooked from the very beginning of this book. I’m a huge fan of Rebecca Connolly’s writing style and the way she wrote this book was excellent. I was fascinated by the choices for the epigraphs. If I hadn’t already been appalled at N*zi propaganda, those quotes clinched it for me. But the Winston Churchill quote for the Afterward is the perfect embodiment of what the women in this book did. “This is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never…”
If you want additional perspectives of the horrible accounts of WWII, this book will give it to you. You’ll be inspired by Andrée and Ida, you’ll feel amazed at the resilience of children, you’ll believe in the goodness of people. And you’ll hope for ultimate good to triumph over all evil, because if it can happen in one story, it has to happen again.
This is an incredible book, easily gaining a spot on my top favorites list for the year, and it’s going to stay there. It deserves all the stars. Thank you for your amazing book, Rebecca. It’s beautiful.
AUDIOBOOK REVIEW: the accents and voices are very well done. I especially love the pronunciation of the Belgium words and names. It’s an incredible listen and I highly recommend reading via audio.
**many thanks to the publisher, @shadowmountainpub, and book tour coordinator, @austenprose, for the copy. All thoughts are my own.

Beautifully told story of love and sacrifice
I loved this story, even though parts of it were hard to fathom as someone who didn't live through that time. the main characters were beautifully written. You could feel their emotions and felt like you were right there with them. The story weaves in real characters and experiences, which adds to the beauty of the tale. My only very tiny draw back was the reader. She has a lovely book voice, but when it came time to say proper names, her French accent was so thick. it felt out of place because there are very few accents used at all throughout the story. It felt forced and out of place. But overall this book was phenomenal. I would just recommend to read it rather than listen.
