A magnificent, moving epic with a haunting secret love story at its heart, which will sweep you from present-day Manhattan to London in 1958 - the year of the last debutantes. 1958. At eighteen, Georgia Hamilton is sent to London for the Debutante Season. Independent, and with secret dreams to be a writer, she has no wish to join the other debs competing for a husband. But when tragedy strikes, her fate appears to have been sealed. 2012.

Hurrying to meet her lover, Amy Carrell hopes tonight will change her destiny. And it does - but not in the way she imagined.

And a heart waiting to come back to life...

Industry Reviews

A heartfelt, romantic tale about lost love and how it's never too late to start again. Mingling modern day New York with the rarefied world of 1950s debutantes, Tasmina Perry's ninth novel is a departure but has all the elements she does best: characters you feel you know as intimately as close friends and lots of heart. A treat of a novel you'll want to devour in one sitting - Good Housekeeping

An unforgettable journey...will keep you gripped - Daily Express

A tantalising blend of elegance and mystique...irresistible - Closer

An irresistible page-turner - Marie Claire

A modern fairy tale with broken hearts. Debutantes, country houses - what's not to love? - Daily Mail
