In 1943, talented young fashion designer Mignonne Lachapelle is attempting to launch her career in New York in an industry restricted by war. She's also navigating deep feelings for famed French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, whose zealous wife is trying to win him back — while courting Mignonne. Set amid dazzling wartime Manhattan, this fictionalized story about a love triangle involving the author of the beloved tale The Little Prince is captivating.
