The book tells the real-life love story of Madeleine and Jack, one of the world’s richest men. In 1911, Astor married 18-year-old Madeleine, who quickly became a favorite target of the tabloids. To escape the press, they honeymooned in Egypt and Paris before deciding to return to America as first-class passengers aboard the luxurious Titanic.
