The Room on Rue Amelie

A moving and entrancing novel set in Paris during World War II about an American woman, a dashing pilot, and a young Jewish girl whose fates unexpectedly entwineâ€”perfect for the fans of Kristen Hannahâ€™s The Nightingale and Martha Hall Kellyâ€™s Lilac Girls, this is â€œan emotional, heart-breaking, inspiring tribute to the strength of the human spirit and the enduring power of loveâ€ (Mariah Stewart, New York Times bestselling author).

When Ruby first marries the dashing Frenchman she meets in a coffee shop, she pictures a life strolling arm in arm along French boulevards, awash in the golden afternoon light. But itâ€™s 1938, and war is looming on the horizon.

Unfortunately, her marriage soon grows cold and bitter, her husband Marcel, distant and secretiveâ€”all while the Germans flood into Paris, their sinister swastika flags waving in the breeze. When Marcel is killed, Ruby discovers the secret heâ€™d been hidingâ€”he was a member of the French resistanceâ€”and now she is determined to take his place.

She becomes involved in hiding Allied soldiersâ€”including a charming RAF pilotâ€”who have landed in enemy territory. But her skills are ultimately put to the test when she begins concealing her twelve-year-old Jewish neighbor, Charlotte, whose family was rounded up by the Gestapo. Ruby and Charlotte become a little family, but as the German net grows tighter around Paris, and the Americans debate entering the combat, the danger increases. No one is safe.

â€œSet against all the danger and drama of WWII Paris, this heartfelt novel will keep you turning the pages until the very last wordâ€ (Mary Alice Monroe, New York Times bestselling author).
