WW2 Suspense

The Starlet Spy by Rachel Scott McDaniel is the eleventh book in the multi-author Heroines of WWll series. Hollywood actress Amelie Blake is offered the role of a lifetime. She is asked to travel back to Sweden and find the top-secret atomic research that has gone missing. You often hear of the heroes of WWll but what about the heroines? Loosely based on actual historical events, The Starlet Spy, weaves an intriguing, edge-of-your-seat tale. I received this book from Celebrate-Lit for my honest review.

Loved this book! A must have for fans of WW2 fiction!

" I cared about the millions of brave souls who’d sacrificed their lives in the name of freedom. I cared about seeing good triumph over evil." Like the song, I'm speechless. This book was so, SO good!! Rachel, we need a sequel, or maybe a whole series!! This book has all the perfect elements needed for a great book: a great leading lady and male lead, a good setting, international intrigue, spies, realistic villains, suspense, danger and a clean romance! Not to mention, one of my top favorite authors penned this beauty of a book. 😏 I appreciated how she created a strong female lead without the character being a brat or the typical feminist a lot of books feature. Amelie Blake was no less feminine in what she did as a spy, and she didn't try to one-up the male agents she worked with or carry a chip on her shoulder. She was a confident and humble character despite her cinematic fame. Even in awkward situations, Amelie was a true lady above reproach, and embodied modesty and dignity. She tackled each new obstacle with grit and grace. I was glad to see the author's notes in the back about the history and real life characters that she wove into this book. And the cover- absolutely gorgeous! Couldn't ask for better. If you liked Sarah Sundin's last book, "The Sound of Light" you'll love this book! This is one of my favorite quotes from The Starlet Spy: "Over the past decade, I'd had many roles, but God had called me to go off script. To be the leading lady in the story he'd written for me. I intended to follow the cues from the Director of my heart. For he'd led me... to this moment." Thank you to the author, publisher, Netgalley and Celebrate Lit for n complimentary e-book I received to review. I was not required to write a positive review (but it was a delight to!) and the thoughts above are my own.

Spies Everywhere

5 stars, Spies everywhere THE STARLET SPY (HEROINES OF WWII) by Rachel Scott McDaniel This is a delightful novel stuffed with historical facts about a young Hollywood starlet Amelie Blake, who is invited to become a spy, in her native Sweden. She is cautioned "Trust no one." There are all kinds of historical facts in this book, it makes for quite interesting reading. Highly recommend it. Each book in this series is designed as a stand-alone. I thankfully received a complimentary copy of #TheStarletSpy #HeroinesOfWWIISeries from #BarbourFiction I was under no obligation to post a review. #America #Sweden #mystery #Spies #Inspirational #InspyFiction #WWII
