War is looming and 18-year-old Daisy Blakely arrives in Paris as apprentice to the renowned fashion designer Coco Chanel. Enchanted by the beauty and glamour of the City of Light, Daisy's life is a whirlwind of couture and culture. And when she meets charming and enigmatic Jean-Claude Jacob, a Jewish doctor, an instant connection cements Daisy's happiness.

Everything changes when the Germans march into the city. Daisy and Jean-Claude join the resistance. But her world comes crashing down when Jean-Claude is taken by the Gestapo. Learning to live with her loss, Daisy's life becomes one of secrets and danger as she works tirelessly to undermine the Nazi regime.

The arrival of German soldier Fritz causes Daisy to question everything she thought she knew about life, and love, as she's drawn to a man tied to the enemy she has vowed to defeat. But Fritz may not be all that he seems . . .

At a time when the world is torn apart by secrets and betrayal, how will Daisy know who to trust? More importantly, how will she know who to love . . .
