A Face in the Shadows

Agustine is a beautiful young French girl at Brigham Young University. She has to men who are in her life. You have to read it to find out what happens. This book was a very fun easy reading book. There was a lot of love a romance in this book. I wouldn't recomand this book to boys. But if your a girl who loves romance like me than this is the book for you.

Augustine is a lovely French girl who arrives in Provo, Utah to attend the Brigham Young University. The time is the 1950's. Her mother's friend provides the money for her to do so. She is soon caught up in a fun romance with a rich, southern playboy, Emory Charles Tuckett, III. Her history professor, Dr. Hans Bekker, is also extremely intriguing. He is a German, and she has been taught to hate the Germans because of her family's nightmarish experiences during the war. The author's descriptions of France, Salt Lake City, Provo, Utah, BYU and dorm life are accurate. The story has serious overtones, but not overdone. I enjoyed this book because the characters are likeable and absorbing. The plot is believeable and interesting too. I am looking forward to reading more of this author's versatile work.
