💛 The Nanny Outside the Gates 💛 - IS OFFICIALLY out in the world and ready for you to read!
A story about bravery, compassion, and quiet resistance.
It’s so important that we don’t forget the past.
We must remember it, write and read about it, and carry it forward so the stories of those who came before us are never forgotten.
Every book I write is rooted with truth about people who endured the unimaginable.
This book is about the servants forced to work for

question:
Hi Keri! I'm sorry for not seeing this question sooner. After The Secret in the Attic released, my published made a change to the title. You can find this book under the title: The Bookseller of Dachau :). I hope you enjoy it!!

"A lovely work of historical fiction set in WW2. Luka is Jewish and Ella is a gentile; they meet and fall in love, then both end up in Auschwitz. Very moving and beautifully written. Great narration too.

"She fell in love with his voice but after meeting him it became so much more. She would do everything to help him and his family, but during wartime it can be dangerously. Will they ever be together when the worst thing happened?
What a heartbreaking" Read more of this review » |

Thanks, Shari, for accepting my friend request on Good Reads.
Have you added Last Words to your TBR yet? Just a little over two weeks until release! I can't wait to share this one with you guys <3.
Last Words <-- Add Book ;)Last Words, where Non-Fiction meets Fiction, and the lines in between are blurred by forbidden love.
Amelia - 1942:
The inside of my closet held the last bit of my freedom before I was torn from my home and shoved onto a dark train.
Our destination was even darker. “Women and children to the right. Men to the left,” they shouted at us.
Everything was taken from me, leaving only the smoke filled air, piercing screams, and soul-burning cries.
I was slowly starved and weakened to the bone, but there was a man—a Nazi—who brought me extra food. He called himself a prisoner too, but he scared me, and I wondered if he was the enemy I should fear the most.
Emma - Current Day:
My grandmother hid her past in an old diary under her bed. The tattered, brown leather book sat there for years until she asked me to find it and read her unspoken words. Now, her stories and secrets are consuming every moment of my life.
She’s dying ... and asking for a man no one in our family has ever heard of.
I never imagined a hand-written book could change my entire life, but it has. It opened my eyes to a new beginning, and I learned that love is not the unsaid word my grandmother has refused to speak. It’s an action—it’s longevity, taboo and sometimes forbidden. Do we fight for what’s wrong, or do we spend our lives searching for what’s right?
Last words were never spoken because love doesn’t stop until a heart is no longer beating.
Thanks for the friend vite Shari! :))
Hi Shari! Thanks so much for the friendvite. I just finished Schasm last night and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! What an amazing read! I can't wait for book two which Jen told me will be out soon. I have to know what happens next! :D Hope to chat with you soon!
