THE LAST ROMANTICS
QUALITY FICTION FOR WOMEN
by NYTimes bestselling author Ruth Harris

A passionate and sweeping historical romance set in the glittering capitals of Paris and New York between the end of World War I in 1918 and the beginning of World War II in 1940.

Kim Hendricks is American, a legendary war reporter and celebrated novelist, a daring big game hunter, glamorous but dangerously flawed. Nicole Redon is French, a gifted fashion designer whose shocking and revolutionary ideas changed the image of women around the world. She is beautiful, charming, lonely, haunted.

He confronts a devastating tragedy. She guards a desperate secret. They meet by chance and pursue their star-crossed romance in New York and Paris, on safari in Africa, in glamorous resorts on the French Riviera and the savage blood-drenched front lines of two world wars.

They were the last romantics, the first contemporaries. Destiny brought them together but would fateâ and the tides of historyâ keep them apart?

â These fascinating and complex characters will remind some of Ernest Hemingway and Coco Chanel.â

â A first-rate love story. I wanted it to go on forever.â Joyce Elbert
