She fell for the enemy. Now she must pay the price.
The gripping second novel from the #1 bestselling author in the Mitchells & O’Haras trilogy.
The Mitchells and the O’Haras have been enemies for years.
One a gangland family, the other travellers, they resort to violence to solve problems between them. So when Frankie Mitchell fell for Jed O’Hara, it was only going to be a matter of time before all hell broke loose.
Clever, ruthlessly attractive to women and slippery as a snake, Jed O’Hara has Frankie exactly where he wants her – pregnant and estranged from her family. Even Eddie Mitchell, Frankie’s terrifying father, is no threat – he’s in prison awaiting trial for murder.
But Frankie is not a Mitchell for nothing and when she begins to suspect the extent of Jed’s treachery, she puts together a lethal plan.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The Traitor by V. S. Alexander is historical fiction story of a young woman‘s life that is based on facts set in Nazi Germany 1942 through 1949. It describes small group resistance to evil and how she and other members of various groups including the famous White Rose made a difference. Harrowing details and experiences most could never imagine. The Traitor is written with characters who come alive to the reader. Alexander’s book reads like a true story because of the authors extensive research, study and understanding of those who were a part of the resistance and historical documents. This important book helps us to remember the brave people who fought the evil of that was the National Socialist Party. I received a complimentary copy of this book from Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. I appreciate the opportunity and thank the author and publisher for allowing me to read, enjoy and review this book. 5 Stars
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Interesting story. Interesting piece of history. Ultimately though I didn't find myself able to connect to the characters. For some reason I just didn't find them that interesting and was never pulled back into the story after I stopped reading. So while the story was interesting, I just wasn't blown away.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Stories about World War II have always fascinated me, especially those that are based in fact and tell the stories of ordinary people forced into extraordinary circumstances. Sometimes it seems like it was all of Europe. The Traitor by V. S. Alexander fits right into that category and I enjoyed it very much.Natalya Petrovich is just a student when things begin to get ominous in Germany. Her family comes from Russia but they have done their best to assimilate themselves into the German culture. However, as Natalya and her family – and many, many others – soon find out, assimilation for all isn’t part of the Master Plan. Purges and concentration camps appear, and many Germans just don’t understand how this can be and resolve to try to do something about it.Natalya joins the White Rose, the resistance movement of young Germans against the Nazi regime. Her job is to participate in writing and distributing a series of anonymous leaflets hidden in public places or mailed to addresses selected at random from the phone book denouncing the Nazi regime. Author Alexander does an excellent job of portraying the fear and danger, the dedication, the loss of friends and the betrayal of others.Thanks to One More Chapter Books Harper Collins for providing an advance copy of The Traitor via NetGalley for my honest review. I enjoyed it and recommend it. All opinions are my own.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Loved the author's other book The Taster so I picked up this one. Not great at the beginning. I almost gave up on it but the second half was a page turner. Will definitely read through some of the recommended books about the real White Rose and the resistance.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5historical-fiction, historical-places-events, historical-figures, Germany, resistance-efforts, danger, historical-research, WW2This book dresses some ugly history in the finery of fiction. That's a good thing.Natalya stands as the everywoman of the German peaceful resistance known as the White Rose of underground defiance of the Nazis. Her family fled the predations of Russia coming to Germany and becoming citizens, but it all went from bad to worse as the Reich rose in strength and cruelty. She undertook hazardous tasks, tried to comfort the despair of others, and even found time for a little romance. The characters and their situations are all too believable as are the lessons from the past. The book is very moving.I requested and received a free ebook copy from Kensington Books via NetGalley. Thank you!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This intriguing new novel by V.S. Alexander gives the reader a look at the horrors of World War II from another perspective - those of Natalya Petrovich. Natalya is a German citizen, lives in Munich and is a student at the University. She was born in Russia but her parents moved to Munich when she was very young to have a better life. She sees the cruelty of the war when she volunteers to work as a nurse at the Russian front. When she returns to Munich, she vows to try to make a difference. When her best friend asks her to join a small resistance group called the White Rose, she knows that being part of the group could lead to her death but she is determined to take the chance if she can make a difference. Natalya risks her life and the lives of her parents hoping that her words and actions will encourage other people to resist what is happening in Germany. Will her gamble pay off and will she be able to make a difference or is the White Rose group destined to failure? As the Nazi hierarchy of Munich searches for the members of the group, Natalya's hopes for survival diminish and she must take an extraordinary gamble in her own personal struggle to survive.The plot of the novel is intriguing and suspenseful. I flew through the pages to find out what would happen to Natalya and the other members of the White Rose. I will admit to some tears during the story but the overwhelming feeling was the strength and resilience of many of the German citizens.Note: Be sure to read the author's notes at the end of the book to find out about the White Rose resistance group in Germany. Many of the characters in the novel are based on real people and the author did extensive research to learn more about the real people in the group and made an effort to 'marry fiction with history'.I received a copy of this book from the publisher for review. All opinions are my own.
