The Last Fashion House in Paris by Renee Ryan


How do you know if the person you are talking to is really who they appear to be?

You didn’t know for sure in occupied France.


We meet Paulette who found out you couldn’t trust a German officer she had fallen in love with, and then her sister forced her out of their home.


Luckily Paulette had a place to go.  She went to a Paris fashion house headed by her mother’s best friend.


The fashion house was a busy place and one filled with Resistance workers.  Paulette became involved.  


Did she get too involved?  Could her mother's friend protect her?


THE LAST FASHION HOUSE IN PARIS is another fabulous read by Ms. Ryan where we follow Paulette as she grows in confidence and helps save French citizens but at risks to herself and her fellow Resistance workers as well as friends. 


We also get to learn about the fashion industry and how it survived during the war.  


Historical fiction fans and fashion fans will not want to miss Ms. Ryan’s newest, well-researched gem.  5/5


Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this book.  All opinions are my own.
