Romance Historical

A sweeping novel of passion, intrigue, and unrequited love, Desiree tells the story of Napoleon's first love, Desiree Clary. When a young, impoverished Napoleon meets the French merchant's daughter, the smitten pair is swiftly engaged. But the ambitious Napoleon dashes off to war, leaving fourteen-year-old Desiree pining and lonely. When her desire drives her to track down the general in Paris, she finds the formidable Josephine.

A love story, but so much more, Desiree honestly explores the landscape of a heart torn in two, revealing the true story of an unlikely young girl who played a vibrant role in an astonishing it of history and rose to unexpected heights.

An epic bestseller that has earned both critical acclaim and mass adoration, Desiree is at once a novel of the rise and fall of empires, the blush and fade of love, and the heart and soul of a woman.
