Publisher Description
Return to the enchanting Chateau Vauquelin in a tale filled with intrigue and passion, as a century-old mystery resurfaces in the bustling streets of modern-day Paris.
Gatecrashing a high-society wedding at Chateau Vauquelin isn't Celeste Morel's finest hour. But it’s her last chance to find the secret papers hidden within the chateau’s deep walls. Documents that might prove whether Madame Duval left Paris alive nearly ninety years ago, or if she was murdered by the previous owner. And the plan would have worked, if only the best man hadn’t confiscated them.
Nick Magnani is fighting his way through France’s famous bureaucracy. So, it’s something of an irony that he’s now withholding papers from the one woman in Paris who has the connections he needs to secure his latest venture. But, amid their heated exchanges, the chemistry that has been sizzling ever since Nick and Celeste met ignites, intensifying their tumultuous relationship.
Despite Nick’s reservations, Celeste delves deeper into the secrets of the past, only to discover the papers hold more than just Madame Duval's fate. As Celeste and Nick unlock a Pandora's box of revelations, they become entangled in a dangerous web of passion, betrayal, and corruption—that someone will do anything to keep quiet.
Customer Reviews
Celeste and Nick’s story
This is the first book I have read by Sara Claridge and thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and in fact I plan on reading more of the series. It is the fifth book in the Tangled Hearts Series. The main characters are Celeste and Nick. Celeste gate crashed a wedding. She was looking for information on the disappearance of Madame Duval, but what she wasn't expecting was to get caught and have the documents that she needs taken from her. The more she digs to find out what happened the more she puts herself in danger. Nick only has a short time to finalise his new hotel venture in France but he wasn't expecting trouble from the one woman who he needs to complete the venture. Sara Claridge is an amazing writer and the story kept me on the edge of my seat. she certainly knows how to keep her reader's attention and on the edge of their seats. I highly recommend this book for all readers of romance suspense.
I received an ARC from BookFunnel for leaving a voluntarily honest review.
