When Tucker Branch,
playboy heir to Branch Bolt and Screw, screws and bolts a week before
their wedding, Mia Devine wants nothing more than to crawl under her
newly monogrammed sheets and plan a funeral for her dignity. But her
friends convince her that bitter tastes better when it’s drowned in
Bordeaux, so Mia grits her teeth and packs her bags, determined to make
the best of her luxurious Paris honeymoon—alone.
She never planned on meeting Lucas Fournier.
The easygoing bartender’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 Lucas 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?

If I had to sum this book up in one word, I would say it’s
adorable. This was a new author for me,
but it is just a charming and adorable and funny and touching read.
Mia should be marrying Tucker Branch. Except for one tiny detail, he left her the
week before their wedding. Mortified and embarrassed, she just wants to hide
under her blankets for the rest of her life.
But, her friends convince her to go on vacation to try and forget it
all. Well, except that the vacation is
actually her honeymoon to romantic Paris…but since Tucker is footing the bill
she figures why not? Once in Paris, she decides that she’s made a mistake. She decides to have a drink in a bar and then
go home, but this is where fate has something good in store for her, and his
name is Lucas Fournier. After hearing
her story, he convinces her to stay in Paris with him for her vacation, and to
show her the beauty of Paris. What
neither of them plans is the insane chemistry between them. Can this away from home fling be more for
Mia, or has Tucker scarred her heart forever?
First of all, this book is legit funny. I laughed out loud
more than once. The banter between the
characters is witty and fun and I loved the tone and pace of the whole
book. Lucas is awesome and sweet and
exactly what you want in a leading man.
Mia is funny and interesting and strong and introspective, exactly the
kind of girl you’d want to have as a friend.
And together, they are explosive both in and out of bed.
I also thought the concept of this whole book is
sweet. Sometimes people come into your
lives when you are least expecting it, but they arrive just when you need them
the most. I loved the idea of two people
from different places in the world connecting in a way that needed and good for
both of them. Kind of helps to heal the
love-jaded heart of the reader as well.
As I said, adorable.
