Why read it?
1 author picked The Vanished Collection as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Pauline Baer de Perignon doesn’t hold anything back – she puts her ego aside as she shares her secret ambitions, doubts and insecurities, triumphs and frustrations on her mission to uncover a distressing chapter in her family’s history.

From Lilianne's list on France that go beyond the rom com.
