Meer over het boek

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. Set against the vibrant backdrops of Paris, L.A., and the world of ready-to-wear fashion, this deeply involving story follows a gifted designer whose talent and drive have led to great success but left her unable to trust in relationships. Timmie O’Neill, the creator of the renowned fashion line Timmie O, thrives during the chaos of Fashion Week across New York, London, Milan, and Paris. Over two decades, she has built an international empire from nothing, embodying casual chic in both fashion and home design. Despite her achievements, Timmie carries the scars of a troubled childhood, leading her to prefer limited, convenient relationships over deeper connections. However, her well-ordered life is disrupted when she meets Jean-Charles Vernier, a Frenchman who becomes her physician during a bout of illness in Paris. Their relationship evolves from patient and doctor to confidants, with correspondence spanning continents. As their bond deepens, they face the challenge of navigating their contrasting worlds and the risks of intimacy. This tale explores the complexities of modern life, including careers, family, and the fear of vulnerability, ultimately questioning whether they are brave enough to embrace what comes next—together or apart.
