Über diesen Titel

Picture this: You pack your bags. Move to Paris. Fall in love. A dream, right?

Wrong. Especially when you find out your Mr. Right is actually married. With kids. Don't even mention the white picket fence.

Heartbroken in the City of Love, the last person Elizabeth Hastings expects to lend her a shoulder to cry on is her brother's best friend...

Spencer Tate is opening up his first gym in London when a frantic call sends him to Paris to check on his best friend Sebastian's baby sister.

If he's lucky, he can stop in for a minute and be back in London the next day. Easy peasy. Except the dorky bookworm he remembers is now all grown up, with dangerous curves, lips just made for kissing, and eyes he could get lost in...

Spencer. Is. Screwed.

Contains mature themes.

This Story is very cute. Not at all surprising but easy to get hooked on.
Can‘t wait for the other siblings‘ stories!

Good read

Her character traits are books, his abs. It seems like the author really dislikes French people. Every French person in this book is described in a rather insulting and unflattering way. (They are portrayed as cheating, lying, chain smoking, overwhelmed and helpless in school, and not taking no for an answer) At times the author justifies her writing romance by having the female lead muse ad odd moments about how feminist it is and how it is ok to read these books (just to make it seem like a shameful secret a little while later). It all just feels very one dimensional. The voice actors are doing ok, but editing was a bit spotty. Sometime you could her her start a word, correct herself and go on with the sentence, but the stumble wasn’t edited out.
The book would have the chance to greatly improve, if there was actual appreciation for the culture is is set in (and not just “on look, old buildings”) and let down on the “Americans are so great, everybody just LOVES them and they are here to save the day (or in this case totally overworked children in schools and universities)

It will make you go: Huh, do I know this book or is it THAT cliche?
