Kelly Bowen’s standalone novels mark her move from Regency romance into WWII-era historical fiction. The Paris Apartment (2021) follows a woman who inherits a Paris flat and discovers it holds secrets from the occupation. The Garden of Lost Secrets (2023) and Tomorrow Is for the Brave (2024) continue her exploration of wartime stories centered on women.
These books showcase Bowen’s range as a historical writer, bringing the same attention to character and setting that defined her Regency romances to the very different world of mid-twentieth-century Europe.
