friendship and honesty becomes important to all of the girls during the trip.
Paris is the city of love. Personal connections get slightly crossed when Armand decides to set his sights on Colette, while Hannah has staked her claim and purports to love him.

Marie Antoinette, was not happy with the aristocrats who deserted her during the
