Mia Devine plans over-the-top weddings for a living. So when it comes to her own nuptials, she spares no expense—hand engraved invitations, Vera Wang gown, luxury honeymoon in France. And since her fiancé is Tucker Branch, playboy heir and notorious flirt, local media is obsessed with every little detail. Which is why it really sucks when he jilts her a week before the wedding. Mortified, Mia wants nothing more than to crawl under her newly monogrammed sheets and plan a funeral for her dignity, right after blabbing to the world how fitting it is that Tucker will inherit a bolt and screw company, because that’s all he wants to do—screw, and bolt. And he doesn’t do either with much finesse. When her friends convince her that bitter tastes better when it’s drowned in Bordeaux, she grits her teeth and packs her bags, determined to make the best of a week in Paris alone. She never planned on meeting Lucas Fournier. The free-spirited musician’s scruffy good looks and less-than-sympathetic ear annoy her at first, but when she takes him up on his offer to show her around the city, she discovers that the romance of Paris isn’t just a myth. Nor is the simultaneous O. The last thing Mia needs is another doomed love affair, but since she only has a week, she figures she might as well enjoy La Vie en O with Lucas while she can. But each day—and night—with him is better than the last, and suddenly her heart is telling her this is more than a rebound fling. Is it just the seduction of Paris…or could this be the real thing?
Our Reviews
Sometimes a
book enters your life at the right time, with exactly what you need for it to
hit the perfect spot..Frenched was that book for me! Funny, great banter, bent
but definitely not broken leads, and a jilted girl in the city of love..recipe
for a romance? Hells to the yes!
I loved this
book!! I am a reading junkie, when I enter a book that I love I want to devour
it in a sitting and many times do.This
book was one that I felt the need to try to pace myself and enjoy like a nice
wine or chocolate. What happened in
reality is every time I walked away from the Kindle, I got the shakes, had to
pretend to fold laundry just to sneak read what few pages I could get
in-between the real life obstacles. Like the true addict I am, I gave in and
entrenched myself in the lives of Lucas and Mia.
Why did I
love this book so much? Great question..it was just an easy, un-forced love
story that flowed beautifully. Not only for the love that was growing but the
friendship and strength they each were finding in themselves. Going to show
when you find your true soul-mate, you don’t have to change who you are..I
always complain about angst, because of the genre that we read I am always
ready for it..guard up..tip toeing through the story waiting for that bomb to
drop..it never really did and you are just gifted a love story, in a beautiful
place, where a future doesn’t need to be promised..or does it?
I strongly
recommend this book for any and all romance lovers. The “dropped on her ass”, loves making lists, event planning, type A lead is strong, funny and engaging.The
bartender/teacher/musician/writer/world traveler is adorably sweet, sexy,
semi-dominating and falls for the 'not looking for love' girl alone in Paris!
