More about the book

Set against the backdrop of New Orleans' high society, the story explores the evolving relationship between Simone d'Or, a spirited young woman, and Colin Seymour, a rising opera star from a modest background. Initially dismissive of Colin's lower status, Simone becomes enchanted by his talent. As she navigates personal challenges, including her brother's gambling troubles and the threat of an unwanted marriage to a dangerous suitor, Simone's journey reveals themes of ambition, societal expectations, and the transformative power of love.
