An aristocratic young woman leaves the sheltered world of London to
find adventure, passion, and independence in 1920s Paris in this
mesmerizing story from the USA Today and internationally
bestselling author of Somewhere in France and After the War is
Over.Spring, 1924Recovering from a broken wartime engagement and a
serious illness that left her near death, Lady Helena
Montagu-Douglas-Parr vows that for once she will live life on her
own terms. Breaking free from the stifling social constraints of
the aristocratic society in which she was raised, she travels to
France to stay with her free spirited aunt. For one year, she will
simply be Miss Parr. She will explore the picturesque streets of
Paris, meet people who know nothing of her past and pursue her
dream of becoming an artist.A few years after the Great War s end,
the City of Light is a bohemian paradise teeming with actors,
painters, writers, and a lively coterie of American expatriates who
welcome Helena into their romantic and exciting circle. Among them
is Sam Howard, an irascible and infuriatingly honest correspondent
for the Chicago Tribune. Dangerously attractive and deeply scarred
by the horror and carnage of the war, Sam is unlike any man she has
ever encountered. He calls her Ellie, sees her as no one has
before, and offers her a glimpse of a future that is both
irresistible and impossible.As Paris rises phoenix-like from the
ashes of the Great War, so too does Helena. Though she s shed her
old self, she s still uncertain of what she will become and where
she belongs. But is she strong enough to completely let go of the
past and follow her heart, no matter where it leads her?Artfully
capturing the Lost Generation and their enchanting city, Moonlight
Over Paris is the spellbinding story of one young woman s journey
to find herself, and claim the life and love she truly wants."
