Beschreibung:
Paris, the storybook capital of romance--of strolls down cobblestone streets and kisses by the Seine--may not be the ideal location to mend a wounded heart. But pragmatic professional writer Anna, who has been unlucky in love in L.A., has come here with keys to her aunt's empty apartment. Bilingual and blessed with dual citizenship, she seeks solace in the delectable pastries, in the company of old friends, and in her exciting new job: translating a mysterious, erotic French novel by an anonymous author.Intrigued by the story, and drawn in by the mystery behind the book, Anna soon finds herself among the city's literati--and in the arms of an alluring Parisian--as she resolves to explore who she is . . . in both cultures.
Anna has just had her heart broken in LA. But unlike most women who have been unlucky with love, she has an enviable backup plan - she uses her dual citizenship and moves to Paris to live in her aunt's apartment. Paris, the city of romance, might not seem like the easiest place to mend a broken heart.
