Set during the German occupation of France Jana Richards’ novel Flawless begins with Hunter Smith incarcerated in an English prison convicted of jewel theft. He is an expert in diamonds and is also the disowned son of an American Ambassador. He is visited in prison by a member of the SOE, an early form of MI6, and presented with an option of getting out only he must steal le Coeur Bleu. This is a priceless diamond in the possession of the Germans. With the help of French Resistance including the widow of Hunter’s best friend, Madeline Bertrand, a plan is made. Only Madeline believes that Hunter was responsible for her husband Jean Phillip’s death.
In a wonderful twisted way Richards’ continues the twisty romantic thriller. Can these people work together? Can they find and steal the diamond successfully before General Dietrick can sell it in return for oil the German Army need? Most importantly can they find love and forgiveness among the dangers?
Even though this is a short book, it still delivers. Richards develops the main characters so that you identify with them and their mission. It is still full of plot twists and turns. The book made an excellent weekend book to read.
I received a copy of this book from NetGalley and Backlit PR in exchange for a fair and honest review

I loved this book! It is a wonderful example of historical fiction. I liked the characters and found that the friction between the main characters was realistic as well as the reconciliation. I like World War II books and this one kept me guessing to the end.

Hunter is in an English prison in 1942 for a jewel robbery when he is visited by the head of the SOE with a proposition to get him released. ........He has to steal the most perfect diamond from the Nazis. The same diamond that got his best friend Jean Philippe killed.
Madeleine is part of the resistance in France trying to steal back the diamond before the Nazis use it to buy raw materials to help them win the war but she is not happy when Hunter appears. ....He is the man that set up her husband and got him killed! Can the two of them get over their differences and fight for the same side?
I really enjoyed this book, although it was very short, there was plenty of intrigue and lots of twists and turns to keep you interested and I always enjoy the books about the SOE
