I LOVED this book. The heroine is dumped horribly by her ex-fiance and she loses her job working for a boy bad record label. Her friend from Paris consoles her with a job offer to work with her as PR for a hot up and coming singer, Guillaume, and telling her that the beauty of Paris and all the available men will help heal her heart. Well the singer turns out to need a LOT of baby-sitting (he is a wonderful and unique character, however, seeing what he'd get into next was my favorite part of the book!) and the only man she really hits it off with is a reporter that disbelieves her excuses for Guillaume's behavior.

The book's romance was a bit secondary, this is mainly a character journey where one of the main characters is a beautifully described Paris. The plot is fun, interesting and romantic. I really enjoy Harmel's voice, her writing always has a lot of character and the pages always fly by. It's also very, very funny. Highly recommended!

I loved this book. I didn't want to put it down or see it end. I enjoyed that KH made Paris and the sites such an important part of this book. I loved re-visiting the places I had seen when I was in Paris. It makes me want to go back and share it with my husband now.

I have enjoyed all of KH's books. I look forward reading much more from her.

Very good, quick read. Her writing made you feel as if you were in Paris. The book was predictable, but it did have some nice twist and turns.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I am a huge fan of chick-lit anyway, but I really liked that this book is more about the journey of figuring out who you are rather than running on to the next man.

The story seemed somewhat secondary to giving the reader a "tour" of Paris. If you're planning on going to Paris and like very light chick-lit you might love this book. If you're looking for a story you can grab onto and characters that are well developed, it's not here.

This book makes me want to book my plane ticket to Paris immediately. It's a very enjoyable book that I read quickly. The descriptions of Paris are so beautiful and detailed. The story contains a clever twist.
