Giveaway: The Golden Hour by Margaret Wurtele

Thanks to Kayleigh of Penguin Group U.S.A, I am giving away one copy of The Golden Hour to one of my U.S. readers.

Book Description:
In THE GOLDEN HOUR, seventeen-year-old Giovanna Bellini sees firsthand the devastating effects of the war. Following the Italian government’s peace agreement with the Allies, Giovanna watches as the German military invades her town, forming a hostile occupying army. At first, Giovanna is fascinated by the Nazi officers, but as the war strips away Giovanna’s naïveté and harsh realities are exposed, her brother Giorgio recruits her to aid in the Italian Resistance. When she is asked to hide wounded Jewish freedom fighter Mario Rava, Giovanna finds herself falling for the brave young man. The world around her is in constant turmoil and when terrible truths are revealed, threatening the lives of everyone Giovanna cares about, she is forced to make unimaginable sacrifices and decisions.
