_______________

Christmas, 1915.
A grieving father gives his motherless daughter an exquisite, one-of-a-kind A. Marque doll, one she'd gladly exchange for her heart's desire.

Summer, 1975. Sheltered Midwesterner Helen Kenyon is set to marry her college sweetheart, when she jumps at the opportunity to spend six months in Paris. With fellow Americans Lilianne and Connie and an 'adopted' antique doll, Helen plunges into a heady world of high culture and champagne. But it's the charismatic photojournalist, Gilles Aubert, who tempts her to change her future.

Fifty years later. Teresa Clark dutifully prepares her estranged Grandma Helen's Kansas ranch for sale, only to find that Helen bears little resemblance to the philandering drunk of her mother's stories. Not until she uncovers mementos of Helen's past and the astonishing secret of a well-preserved antique doll, does Teresa gain strength to face multiple truths - about her family, herself, and what life she'll choose for her own.

Three priceless treasures. Three extraordinary women. Three powerful legacies.
The next books in the series, The Jewel of Cairo and The Temptations of Crete, will follow Lilianne and Connie's own remarkable journeys from where their time in Paris together left off.
