In February 1887, Caitriona Wallace and Emile Nouguier meet in a hot air balloon, floating high above Paris. But back on firm ground, their vastly different social strata becomes clear.

As the Eiffel Tower rises, a marvel of steel and air and light, Cait and Emile must decide what their love is worth.
