The Riviera House - Book Review

The Riviera House by Natasha Lester

The year is 1939 and the Nazis are invading France. Eliane sends her mother and sisters to the border, but she stays to help the resistance hide precious art from the Louvre along with her brother. Soon Eliane is working for the Germans in a gallery where they are cataloguing art for their private collections. When she sees the man she loved and lost, she is confused and conflicted as to why he would also work with the Germans. But all is not what you see, and Eliane will have some tough choices to make.

In the present, Remy is taking shelter in a home she inherited, a deed to the home that was given to her adopted parents to hold for her until she needed it. Remy is fighting her way back from a devasting loss and all she wants to do is focus on her vintage fashion business and find peace. What she does not count on is discovering finding long buried secrets to a family she never knew.

This riveting novel by Natasha Lester left me breathless reading both Eliane and Remys journeys. The story wove together brilliantly and as secrets were uncovered, the story kept evolving into a dynamic tale of love, loss, and family. I highly recommend reading the notes by the author at the end of the book, as she explains how she based this story on actual people and events while adding her own spin. Truly a remarkable novel and this is definitely a five-star read. Thank you to Harlequin Publishing, Natasha Lester and Netgalley for gifting me an advanced readers copy which I voluntarily read and reviewed.
