As war and devastation kept closing in on Adriana, she knew her only choice was to fight back.

1940, Rome. Eighteen-year-old Adriana never felt different for being Jewish. She was used to a comfortable life, oblivious to the threat of war and Fascism surrounding her. But when Jewish refugees from across Europe begin flooding Italy seeking shelter from the Nazis, Adriana knows she must do something for her people.

While volunteering at the local Jewish center, she reunites with Luigi, a Jewish boy she knew years ago, now grown into a handsome young man. The two help smuggle Jewish families from the city to nearby villages. Risking their lives through treacherous terrain, they rekindle their blossoming romance. But as deportation expands to Italian Jews, Adriana and Luigi must part ways to survive.

When Adriana returns to Rome and discovers that Luigi has disappeared without a trace, she assumes the worst. Without him, life loses meaning, and Adriana is ready to take bigger risks. Joining the Italian resistance, she is about to partake in their most daring and possibly most deadly operation yet.

Based on a true story, The Italian Resistance Girl is a touching and captivating story of courage, resilience, and love, perfect for fans of Kelly Rimmer, Kristin Hannah and Kate Quinn.
