<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The last time <strong>Valerie</strong> was in Paris, she was three years old, running from the Nazis, away from the only home she had ever known.<br /> <br /> Now as a young woman all alone in the world, Valerie must return to Paris, to the bookshop and her sole surviving relative, her grandfather <strong>Vincent</strong>, the only person who knows the truth about what happened to her parents. As she gets to know grumpy, taciturn Vincent again, she hears a tragic story of Nazi-occupied Paris, a doomed love affair and a mother willing to sacrifice everything for her beloved daughter.<br /> <br /> Can Valerie and Vincent help each other to mend the wounds of the past? Valerie isn't after a fairytale ending, she only wants the truth. But what is the one devastating secret that Vincent is determined to keep from his granddaughter? <br /> <br /> <strong>An unputdownable and unforgettable story of love, fear and courage in a time of war. Immerse yourself in a Paris where soldiers' boots echo on cobbled streets and the air is full of whispers. Fans of <em>Before We Were Yours</em>, Kathryn Hughes and <em>The Paris Wife</em> will be absolutely hooked by this beautiful, tragic tale.</strong><br /> <br /> <strong>Readers are falling in love with <em>The Paris Secret: </em></strong><br /> <br /> '<strong>WOW that was one brilliant read, definitely up there with my top books for 2018! </strong>Superbly written and a beautiful if heart-wrenching at times storyline... It's a beauty and the granddad and Clotilde are just wonderful characters. Highly recommend, <strong> worthy of more than 5 stars!' </strong>Goodreads Reviewer, <strong>5 Stars.</strong><br /> <br /> 'How to put my feelings into words about this book... <strong>absolutely one of the best books I have read in 2018</strong>... Lily Graham has written one of the best books of the year in my honest opinion! <strong>If I could have given this a higher rating that 5 stars I would have done so</strong>... truly an <strong>unforgettable</strong> story!' Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars.<br /> <br /> <strong>'Warning! This book will make you cry </strong>and crave the attention of a mangy old cat. It will make you want to head straight to Paris to find this magical bookstore!... <strong>The most moving story I've read in a long while</strong>... Magical... Mon Dieu, <strong>I have not wept so much in a while.</strong> Such rich characters and vivid scenes. Gorgeously evoked! I fell in love with one of them myself. I bawled at one of the later scenes. But <strong>by the end I was smiling and crying</strong>. I was an emotional mess all round really. Think I need that mangy old bookshop cat to come alive so I have something to cuddle right now.'<em> The Book Trail</em><br /> <br /> 'What a delightful yet <strong>sad and heart-breaking story!</strong> I loved the back and forth storytelling... The author has quite a talent for painting a picture as it was so easy for me to imagine everything!' Goodreads Reviewer</p>
