Secrets She Kept

About this book

The secret a mother was forbidden to share . . . the consequences a daughter could not redeem--but will risk everything in her attempt. All her life, Hannah Sterling longed for a close relationship with her estranged mother. Following Lieselotte's death, Hannah unlocks secrets of her mother's mysterious past, including the discovery of a grandfather living in Germany. Thirty years earlier, Lieselotte's father, ascending the ranks of the Nazi party, demands a marriage for his daughter to help advance his career. But Lieselotte is in love--and her beloved Lukas secretly works against the Reich. How far will her father go to achieve his goal? Both Hannah's and Lieselotte's stories unfold as Hannah travels to Germany to meet her grandfather, who hides wartime secrets of his own. Longing for connection, yet shaken by all she uncovers, Hannah must decide if she can atone for her family's tragic past, and how their legacy will shape her future.
