Description
Set against the construction of the Eiffel Tower, this novel tells the story of Caitriona Wallace and Émile Nouguier, two people from different worlds who find love in unexpected circumstances. In February 1887, they meet in a hot air balloon above Paris, a moment that sets them on a path of discovery. As the Eiffel Tower rises, Cait and Émile must navigate their vastly different social strata and confront the constraints of class and wealth. Their love becomes a source of tension and conflict, forcing them to decide what is truly important to them. Beatrice Colin's vivid portrayal of this revolutionary time weaves together historical detail and inventive storytelling. This novel raises thought-provoking questions about a woman's place in society, the impact of class distinctions, and the sacrifices that love can require.
