The Paris Affair
'This breathtaking WW2 romance set in Nazi-occupied Paris will stay with you long after the last page.'

But the war brings devastation, and it's not long until it reaches Charlotte's front door. Her world is rocked and forever changed by tragedy. With nothing left to lose, she accepts a mysterious invitation to work for the War Office as a spy. Nothing is as it seems, and she finds herself in Nazi-occupied Paris with a new identity.
Charlotte begins working under the sombre but handsome Frenchman Pierre Lesieur. But does his allegiances lie elsehwhere? With the Gestapo at every corner and networks falling all around her, Charlotte feels danger closing in on her. And nothing is more dangerous than her growing feelings for Pierre.
