We all know who Thomas Jefferson was. The 1st Secretary of State, 2nd Vice President, and 3rd President, and much more. Rival to Alexander Hamilton, this man was intelligent, luxurious, and at times, a bit arrogant.
However, there's a lot the history books don't cover. One of his most well known contributions in history was acting as the ambassador to France. Thomas had intended for the trip to be purely diplomatic. What he hadn't known was that while he stayed in Paris, his life would be changed forever by one person. His soon to be rival's sister-in-law, Angelica Schuyler.
Will Thomas learn to control his temper, maybe even learn to love? Will Angelica see the good man within the façade of fashion and politics? Perhaps not, but this is France. And anything at all can happen in the City of Love.
