Synopsis

A new romance series that's Emily In Paris meets A Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants! In this first book, budding theatre nerd Whitney Curry studies abroad in Paris, France, where she meets her match in a cute, aloof footballer.

Whitney Curry is primed to have an epic semester abroad. She’s created the perfect itinerary and many, many to-do lists after collecting every detail possible about Paris, France. Thus, she anticipates a grand adventure filled with vintage boutiques, her idol Josephine Baker’s old stomping grounds, and endless plays sure to inspire the ones she writes and—ahem—directs!

But all is not as she imagined when she’s dropped off at her prestigious new Parisian lycée. A fish out of water, Whitney struggles to juggle schoolwork, homesickness, and mastering the French language. Luckily, she lives for the drama. Literally.

Cue French tutor Thierry Magnon, a grumpy yet très handsome soccer star, who’s determined to show Whitney the real Paris. Is this type-A theater nerd ready to see how lessons on the City of Lights can turn into lessons on love?

“A heartfelt romance that’s as delicious as chocolate.” —Ashley Woodfolk, New York Times bestselling author

Totalnie przepadłam dla tej historii , jest taka urocza I jednocześnie tak bardzo piękna, Autorka idealnie wciągnęła nas do życia w Paryżu, oficjalnie chce przeżyć przygodę jak główna bohaterka i znaleźć swojego zrzędliwego lektora francuskiego 🤝🏻💌......more

Czy da się nie zakochać w mieście zakochanych? Przedstawiam Wam mój dumny matronat - książkę, która jest tak lekka, urocza i słodka, że spokojnie możecie pochłonąć ją w jeden wieczór. Gdy dostałam propozycję objęcia jej patronatem medialnym od wydawnictwa i zaczęłam czytać - poczułam, że w tamtym mome......more
