‘With glorious characters and a dreamy setting, I couldn’t have loved this book more’ THE SUN, REVIEW

Back to the city of dreams . . .

Paris has always held a piece of Jess’s heart, ever since she spent a magical summer there over twenty years ago. So when a writing job offers her the chance to return, she’s delighted, especially as her subject is iconic artist Adelaide Fox. Now approaching eighty, Adelaide wants to tell her life story – and what a life it has been, full of scandal, success, betrayal and passion.

But Adelaide is keeping secrets from her, Jess is sure. And she soon realises she will have to confront her own past in the city. Can Jess find out the truth – even if it means changing both of their lives for ever?

Publisher Review

A warm, extremely likeable, romantic book with plenty of substance and a lovely dog. I enjoyed it SO much * Marian Keyes * With glorious characters and a dreamy setting, I couldn’t have loved this book more * The Sun * What a joy! Escapist, romantic and a little bit scandalous, this is Lucy Diamond at her page-turning best. A glorious Parisian adventure * Veronica Henry * This book shows how the past can impact on the present. It is intriguing and its setting is a joy in itself. I loved it! * Katie Fforde * As multi-layered, rich and enjoyable as a giant mille-feuille. You will adore it * Milly Johnson * There are few things more enjoyable than sitting down with a Lucy Diamond novel. Her stories of family, friendship and life are heartfelt and escapist * Woman & Home * Just the antidote for bleak February days, with its uplifting story about second chances and friendship, all set in the magical city of Paris * The Gloss * This heartwarming novel is a romantic read with a delightful ending * Candis * [A] gem of a novel. At once escapist, romantic and scandalous * The Sunday Post * Escapist, thoughtful * My Weekly * A heartfelt and escapist read * Woman’s Weekly * An escapist adventure to lose yourself in * Best * Heartfelt and escapist * Woman *
