About this listen
A USA TODAY BESTSELLER!
"Adriana Herrera is once again here to upend any outdated notions of historical romance." —Entertainment Weekly
One last summer.
For Manuela del Carmen Caceres Galvan, the invitation to show her paintings at the 1889 Exposition Universelle came at the perfect time. Soon to be trapped in a loveless marriage, Manuela has given herself one last summer of freedom—in Paris, with her two best friends.
One scandalous encounter.
Cora Kempf Bristol, Duchess of Sundridge, is known for her ruthlessness in business. It's not money she chases, but power. When she sees the opportunity to secure her position among her rivals, she does not hesitate. How difficult could it be to convince the mercurial Miss Caceres Galvan to part with a parcel of land she’s sworn never to sell?
One life-changing bargain.
Tempted by Cora’s offer, Manuela proposes a trade: her beloved land for a summer with the duchess in her corner of Paris. A taste of the wild, carefree world that will soon be out of her reach. What follows thrills and terrifies Cora, igniting desires the duchess long thought dead. As they fill their days indulging in a shared passion for the arts and their nights with dark and delicious deeds, the happiness that seemed impossible moves within reach…though claiming it would cause the greatest scandal Paris has seen in decades.
"...a fun, frothy, feminist voice in historical romance." —New York Times bestselling author Sarah MacLean

What happens in Paris stays in Paris
💅Princess, not 👑Princess.
Violet eyed MC, classic.
Licensed to wear trousers!
Lady. Flower. Art.
Sapphic club called Le Chat Tondu.
What happens in Paris, stays in Paris.
This was a romp. It was cat and mouse, it was adulting adult x horny brat complete with contract. It was finding your sapphic artist family in Paris, but still wearing frou frou frocks to the balls. It was knowing your worth and going after your happiness, even if others (mom & dad) disapprove.
I enjoyed this book so much more than book one, partly because I read the audio (Nneka Okoye did a fantastic job!), and partly because it was not bogged down by a lot of series set-up which, having read this book, felt even more necessary in hindsight. I also just loved the artist collective and Manu’s art, as I too once put kitties on canvas. Bonus star for that! The ending went a bit off the rails, but on the whole I very much enjoyed this book.
Technically a standalone, I’d recommend reading in order as the books all occur around the same time.
