The Shadow of Dreams
Two young women. Two cities. In a world of curated lives, what’s the cost of chasing the dream?
The Shadow of Dreams follows two ambitious young women navigating the delicate line between aspiration and reality. One leaves Paris for the glitter of Miami, chasing love and social media stardom. The other dives into the competitive world of luxury marketing in France.
Set between two cultures, French restraint and American excess, the novel explores how a generation shaped by big dreams, curated images, and quiet disillusionment learns to reinvent itself. It’s a story of class, identity, betrayal, and the high cost of chasing who we think we should be.
