Delia Paget lands her dream job as deputy wardrobe mistress for a touring theatre company. But when she tries on a forgotten Victorian headdress, she begins to have enchanting visions of a beautiful young woman with the voice of a nightingale. The woman is legendary Swedish soprano Jenny Lind, who held audiences spellbound more than a century ago.
Each night, Delia’s dreams transport her into the life of the famous singer — and into the arms of the brilliant yet haunted composer, Fryderyk Chopin. She learns of a passionate love affair hidden by history.
But before she can dismiss the visions as nothing more than dreams, she meets Justyn Krasinski, a charismatic Polish opera star with a voice as mesmerizing as Chopin’s melodies. A hundred years separate the two romances but their similarities are striking.
Has Delia has been given a second chance at a love story a century in the making?This utterly addictive and unforgettable love story — with a time-slip twist — is perfect for fans of Santa Montefiore, Nicola Cornick, Kirsty Ferry, Christina Courtenay, Irina Shapiro, Kate Ryder and Callie Langridge.
