Juliet moves to Paris to follow her dream of studying painting. To make money, she paints portraits for rich debutantes and one of these commissions results in her meeting Deborah; who is under pressure from her parents to meet a nice man but instead is intrigued by Juliet.
Despite being a classic sort of story – a couple divided by class and the expectations of high society – it’s an enjoyable read. I like the characters but I would have enjoyed more development for them and I felt the French stereotypes were a bit much. I’d like to see more detail and really make Paris feel alive. But, I like the happy ending. More sapphic stories deserve a happy ending. 3.4 out of 5.
