Book Review - Kissed in Paris

I just finished reading "Kissed in Paris" and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by this book. Two things though, one is that the story is your typical predictable chick-love-story-line and you already know how it is going to end from when you start it and, two, it was not exactly the most plausible storyline, I mean it could happen in theory but highly unlikely. None the less I still really enjoyed the book!

It was such a quick, fun, light read, a perfect summer pool/beach read. It also didn't hurt that I downloaded this book for free from amazon when it was on a special price one day, but I'd still even pay the mere $2.99 it is listed for.

I loved the scenery in this book which mostly took place in the beautiful South of France and on a vineyard. I also loved the 'coincidences' that the author put together to really bring the story full circle. Although it was not really plausible it made a cute little twist for the book and made me smile. I also enjoyed how the author made you feel about another character, it is always a good sign when reading a book and you feel the need to make comment out loud, or maybe that is just me. I said at one point "what a jerk," Mike was sitting there playing his video game and had no idea what I was talking about. I was sorry when the book ended, I wanted to keep going with the fun ride. The author is currently working on her third novel now, which I def plan to download when it's available. I read another book by this author earlier this year/last year and enjoyed it as well, I'm looking forward to reading her next book..... I love how books can transport you to different places and make you day dream about things like living in the south of France on a romantic vineyard!


Book Title:  Kissed in Paris by Juliette Sobanet


Book Summary from Amazon: When 29-year-old event planner Chloe Turner wakes up penniless and without a passport in the Plaza Athénée Hotel in Paris, she only has a few fleeting memories of Claude, the suave French man who convinced her to have that extra glass of wine before taking all of her possessions and slipping out the door. As the overly organized, go-to gal for her three drama queen younger sisters, her anxiety-ridden father, and her needy clients, Chloe is normally prepared for every disaster that comes her way. But with her wedding to her straight-laced, lawyer fiancé back in DC only days away and a French con-man on the loose with her engagement ring, this is one catastrophe she never could have planned for.

As Chloe tries to figure out a way home, she runs into an even bigger problem—the police are after her due to suspicious activity now tied to her bank account. Chloe's only hope at retrieving her passport and clearing her name lies in the hands of a rugged, undercover agent named Julien who has a few secrets of his own. As Chloe follows this mysterious, and—although she doesn't want to admit it—sexy French man on a wild chase through the sun-kissed countryside of France, she discovers a magical world she never knew existed and has to decide if the perfectly ordered life she’s built for herself back home is really what she wants after all.
