Welcome to Litsy!

Katya - young, beautiful and impoverished - arrives in Paris, hoping to begin a new life. She leaves behind a terrible secret, and her survival in this strange and beautiful new city depends on nobody ever discovering who - and what - she is.

Dare Katya dream that she may someday wear - or even design - one of these dazzling creations? It feels like an impossible wish, until she meets businessman Harry Morten. Tall, handsome and well-connected, Harry could give Katya everything she wants and more... but at what price? And should she break the vow she's made and trust him with her secret when her very survival could be at stake? From the bestselling author of The Milliner's Secret comes a glittering wartime romance with a dark secret at its heart - perfect for fans of Kathryn Hughes, Gill Paul and Tracy Rees.
