Liv has just went through a divorce and her grandmother swoops in and takes her to Paris so she can heal(at least that's what she thinks). Ines has a secret that she has been keeping for over 70 years. She wants to come clean before she dies. Kristin wrote a heartbreaking, but inspiring story about WWII in Paris. She reminds us of what war can cost a family for generations. She shows us how fear, love, heartbreak, and pain influence our decisions. I was hoping that Ines would have meet Celine and they would discuss what happened all those years ago. What a painful masterpiece.
