Set in the 1950s against the backdrop of Grace Kelly's whirlwind
romance and unforgettable wedding to Prince Rainier of Monaco, New York
Times bestselling author Hazel Gaynor and Heather Webb take the reader
on an evocative sun-drenched journey along the Côte d'Azur in this
page-turning novel of passion, fate and second chances...
Movie stars and paparazzi flock to Cannes for the glamorous film
festival, but Grace Kelly, the biggest star of all, wants only to escape
from the flash-bulbs. When struggling perfumer Sophie Duval shelters
Miss Kelly in her boutique to fend off a persistent British press
photographer, James Henderson, a bond is forged between the two women
and sets in motion a chain of events that stretches across thirty years
of friendship, love, and tragedy.
James Henderson cannot forget his brief encounter with Sophie Duval.
Despite his guilt at being away from his daughter, he takes an
assignment to cover the wedding of the century, sailing with Grace
Kelly's wedding party on the SS Constitution from New York. In Monaco,
as wedding fever soars and passions and tempers escalate, James and
Sophie--like Princess Grace--must ultimately decide what they are
prepared to give up for love.
