Two women are connected across time by the city of Paris, a mysterious stack of love letters, and shocking secrets sweeping from World War II to the present.
The setting almost becomes a third main character in the story ... In some ways, the two stories --- seemingly independent --- mirror each other. And the conclusion is where Jio brilliantly brings these tales together. Filled with emotion and wonderfully written, All The Flowers in Paris shows that love transcends age and that sometimes, out of the mouths of babes, great truths are spoken.
Readers may be able to guess some of the connections between the alternating storylines, but Jio...weaves in enough surprises to keep the pages turning, especially in the heart-stopping conclusion of Céline’s story. Fans of emotional, romantic stories set during World War II will enjoy this heartbreaking tale of love and loss.
Fans of Beatriz Williams will enjoy the historical aspects of Jio’s thoughtful, expressive, and poignant story of love, forgiveness, and strength in the face of tragedy
