“Sarah Jio weaves past and present in this eminently readable novel
about love, gratitude, and forgiveness. I tore through the
pages!”—New York Times bestselling author Christina Baker Kline
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—for readers of Sarah’s Key and The Nightingale.
When Caroline wakes up in a Paris hospital with no memory of her past,
she’s confused to learn that for years she’s lived a sad,
reclusive life in a sprawling apartment on the rue Cler. Slowly
regaining vague memories of a man and a young child, she vows to piece
her life back together—though she can’t help but feel she may be
in danger. A budding friendship with the chef of a charming nearby
restaurant takes her mind off her foggy past, as does a startling
mystery from decades prior. In Nazi-occupied Paris, a young widow
named Céline is trying to build a new life for her daughter while
working in her father’s flower shop and hoping to find love again.
Then a ruthless German officer discovers her Jewish ancestry and
Céline is forced to play a dangerous game to secure the safety of her
loved ones. When her worst fears come true, she must fight back in
order to save the person she loves most: her daughter. When Caroline
discovers Céline’s letters tucked away in a closet, she realizes
that her apartment harbors dark secrets—and that she may have more
in common with Céline than she could have ever imagined. All the
Flowers in Paris is an emotionally captivating novel rooted in the
resiliency and strength of the human spirit, the steadfastness of a
mother’s love, and the many complex layers of the heart—especially
its capacity to forgive. “Heart-stopping . . . Fans of emotional,
romantic stories set during World War II will enjoy this heartbreaking
tale of love and loss.”—Booklist
