En menos de una semana, Brigitte Nicholson se queda sin novio, sin trabajo y sin ganas de seguir con el libro que está escribiendo. Angustiada ante un futuro incierto, se traslada a Nueva York para estar con su madre y accede a ayudarla en la reconstrucción de la genealogÃa familiar. Entonces Brigitte descubrirá que por sus venas corre sangre india, ya que es descendiente de la marquesa de Margerac, cuyo nombre era Wachiwi, y que yace enterrada en la Bretaña.
Cuando viaja hasta ParÃs para seguir investigando, Brigitte conoce a un apuesto profesor de la Sorbona que la ayudará a descifrar cómo una princesa sioux acabó cruzando el Atlántico, en pleno siglo XVIII, de la mano de un noble francés que la introdujo en la corte de Luis XVI y MarÃa Antonieta.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Someday is Brigitte Nicholson's watchword. Someday she and the man she loves, Ted, will clarify their relationship. Someday she'll have children. Someday she'll finish writing her book. Someday she'll stop playing it so safe... Then something happens that changes Brigitte's life completely. Struggling to plot a new course, Brigitte agrees to help her mother on a genealogy project - and makes a fascinating discovery that reaches back to the French aristocracy. Brigitte decides to travel to South Dakota and Paris to follow the path of her ancestor. And as she begins to solve the puzzle of this exceptional young woman who lived so long ago, her quiet life becomes an adventure of its own. A chance meeting and a new opportunity put Brigitte back at the heart of her own story. And with family legacy coming to life around her, someday is no longer in the future. Instead, someday is now.
