French-Nigerian orphan Maude Laurent is recorded singing in a Parisian cafe and becomes an internet star. Whisked away to New York City, Maude chases her dreams while battling with her annoying collaborator and pursuing the truth about her family.
From debut author Anna Adams, this delightful YA romcom is all about finding yourself, your family, and perfect harmony in the big city.
Maude Laurent is an orphan. Raised in a small town in northern France, she’s always wondered about her parents. Her foster family certainly won’t tell her anything. For them, she’s someone to cook meals, clean their house, and look after their twin boys. But Maude dreams of more: becoming an opera star and singing on the great stages of Europe.
Her Cinderella moment arrives when she’s livestreamed playing the piano and singing in a café during a school trip to Paris. Suddenly she’s an internet sensation and music studios are pursuing her with promises of stardom.
Maude agrees to spend six months in New York writing and recording three singles. If they become hits, she can stay and record an album. If they don’t, she’ll have to return home.
Maude knows she has the drive and talent to succeed, but she also knows that her father used to live in the city… Perhaps she can have it all: a successful music career and the chance to learn more about her family. However, first she’ll have to survive rival artists and an arrogant collaborator. Can she beat the clock and find her perfect harmony?
