Title:
One Enchanted Evening
Condition: BRAND NEW
Format: Paperback
Overview:
Step into the Grand Ballroom of the exclusive Buckingham Hotel, where the world’s most powerful and glamorous mingle under chandeliers the size of fortunes. Raymond de Guise leads a troupe of gifted dancers from around the world, tasked with enchanting guests, captivating attention, and sweeping away their cares for one dazzling evening. Yet Raymond carries a secret from his past that could threaten all he has built, and the weight of that truth looms over every graceful turn on the floor. Nancy Nettleton, a new chambermaid, watches from behind plush curtains and hidden doors, dreaming of trading service for a chance to join the dancers on the ballroom stage. As the hotel hums with whispered confidences, guests and staff alike reveal hidden motives and loyalties. What begins as a perfect evening of spectacle becomes a delicate dance of danger, desire, and discovery, where every glance may conceal a lie and every kiss may carry consequences. One Enchanted Evening invites readers into a world of glittering glamour, sharp intrigue, and tender romance, where theatre and real life collide in a spellbinding fusion of wit and warmth.
What Makes This Book Stand Out:
Anton Du Beke crafts a lush, immersive setting that feels both wonderfully glamorous and intimately human. The Buckingham Hotel becomes a character in its own right—a place where secrets simmer just beneath the silk of a gown and the rhythm of a waltz. The narrative threads two central lives—Raymond, a masterful dancer with a guarded past, and Nancy, a bright-eyed dreamer who longs to step into the spotlight—into a braided romance of ambition, loyalty, and longing. The ballroom backdrop delivers sparkling wit, cinematic pacing, and a soft, emotional core that keeps you turning pages. While the prose glides with elegance, the plot never loses momentum, delivering twists that land with satisfying resonance. This is more than a romance; it’s a vivid, sensory immersion in a world where performances matter as much as people, and where one night can rewrite a future.
Who This Book Is Perfect For:
Fans of romantic fiction with a sophisticated, showbiz-infused setting will adore this debut. It’s ideal for readers who relish lush hotel atmospheres, glittering parties, and character-driven plots with secrets that gradually come to light. If you enjoy stories about dancing, backstage life, and the pull between public image and private truth, or you’re drawn to warm, hopeful romances with a touch of intrigue, this novel is for you. It also makes a charming gift for readers who appreciate a Sunday Times bestselling debut and a stylish, readable escape that blends romance with suspense.
