 HOTEL VENDÔME
  
 The hotel was old, run-down. But to Swiss-born hotelier Hugues Martin,  it is a rough diamond tucked away on a quiet New York City street. So  Hugues scrapes together everything he has to purchase the building—and  transforms it into one of the world’s finest luxury hotels.
  
 Under Hugues’s exacting supervision, the Hotel Vendôme is soon renowned  for its unparalleled service and discretion—the ideal refuge for the  rich and famous—and a perfect home for Hugues’s family, until his young  wife abandons him, leaving Hugues the single parent to their  four-year-old daughter. Still, Heloise grows up happily amid a colorful  milieu of celebrities, socialites, politicians, world travelers, and the  countless hotel employees who all adore her.
