Stella Saint-Vincent cannot be called an adventure lover. She works as an editor at a small New York publishing house, lives quietly and modestly, and adheres to a strict daily routine.
Everything changes when, after her mother's death, she inherits an...
unusual legacy — a note with the words "Go to Paris" and a one-way plane ticket. Without feeling enthusiasm and overcoming her complicated relationship with her mother — they hardly communicated — Stella nevertheless decides to fulfill her last wish.
Finding herself alone in an unfamiliar city, she rarely leaves the hotel, avoids new acquaintances, and behaves as she is used to — modestly and frugally. But one day she stops by a vintage clothing store and tries on a Dior dress that she likes. The saleswoman convinces the girl that it seems to be made just for her… and for the first time in her life, Stella acts impulsively — she buys the dress, paying for it with all her funds.
This purchase will change Stella's life forever. In a café, she meets Jules, an eighty-year-old art collector, who will take her under his wing. With his help, discovering the gastronomic, literary, and artistic Paris, Stella will begin to understand what it means to live a real, fulfilling life
