The Fortunate Ones: Beautiful and heartbreaking World War 2 historical fiction

A story to break your heart â€“ if you read only one book this year, make it The Fortunate Ones.

Germany, 1941. When Inge â€“ all blonde curls and good manners â€“ first locks eyes with Felix, she knows instinctively that heâ€™s off limits. Her staunchly proper parents will never approve of a working-class Jewish boy for their precious only daughter. But that doesnâ€™t make their first, shy kiss less significant, or the moment theyâ€™re torn apart less shocking.

The next time they see each other, it will be across the packed courtyard of a Nazi concentration camp â€“ Felix in the prisonersâ€™ ranks and Inge on the arm of her new, Nazi husband.

Inge never knew that her fatherâ€™s â€˜party loyaltyâ€™ would extend to marrying her off to a cruel Nazi officer twice her age, who sees his new wife as just another thing to control. She has always been a good girl â€“ a silent wife â€“ but when Inge sees Felix that day â€“ beaten, bloody and brave â€“ she knows she canâ€™t stay silent any longer.

She must save him, whatever the cost, whatever her husband or even her country might do to her laterâ€¦
