The Ball at Versailles

Four remarkable American debutantes arrive in Paris for the summer of 1959, each carrying her own hopes, dreams, and secrets as they prepare for an exclusive ball at the Palace of Versailles. From Amelia, who questions the very tradition she's about to participate in, to Caroline, reeling from heartbreak, to Felicity, seeking to finally step out of her sister's shadow, and Samantha, navigating the weight of past trauma—these young women are about to discover that one magical night can reshape the course of their lives in ways they never imagined. Steel weaves together their intertwining stories with warmth and insight, exploring how courage, connection, and self-discovery bloom when these four find themselves on the threshold of their futures. It's an elegant, sweeping celebration of female friendship and the transformative power of believing in yourself.
