The keeper of happy endings
(Books)

Includes book club questions.

The friendship between Rory Grant and Soline Roussel brings back memories of Soline's family's Paris bridal salon and their losses during World War II, both material and emotional.

For generations Soline Roussel's family has kept an exclusive bridal salon in Paris. It is said that the bride who wears a Roussel gown is guaranteed a lifetime of joy. Devastating losses during World War II leave Soline's world and heart in ruins and her faith in love shaken. Decades later, while coping with her own tragic loss, aspiring gallery owner Rory Grant leases Soline's old property and discovers a box containing letters and a vintage wedding dress, never worn. When Rory returns the mementos, eerie parallels in Rory's and Soline's lives begin to surface. They were destined to meet-- and Rory may hold the key to righting a forty-year wrong, opening the door to shared healing and, perhaps, a little magic. -- adapted from back cover.
