The Jeweler of Stolen Dreams by M.J. Rose
4.0
Based on Suzanne Belperron, who was a real jeweler and actively involved in the Resistance, The Jeweler of Stolen Dreams combines real life and fiction with a touch of magical fantasy.
Violine, a restorer and auctioneer, has a power, but to protect herself, she has closed herself from accepting her own abilities, which run in her family. During one such assignment, she finds jewels hidden in a trunk since World War II. With the help of the Midas Society, she plans to research the origins of her find. But it's not easy because someone wants to stop her.
M. J. Rose is so good at combining historical fiction and magical elements. This book is no exception. To be able to follow Violine and her powers, it's better to read this novel as a series, but it can be read as a stand-alone. I wanted more of this story and didn't want it to end.
Thank you AuthorBuzz, Blue Box Press and Netgalley for this book.
