An Autumn in Paris

🍁Lovely paean to autumn, tender romance, and the best bits 🍷of La Vie en France!🗼 🍂
October 29, 2018
Format: Paperback
👍👍What a lovely second chance💕 romance showcasing the best features of French living -- the food, the drink, the beautiful gardens and classic architecture, with a culture that values taking time to experience the finer things as an essential part of life. It's obvious that author Alix Nichols loves Paris and knows how to present its best face while acknowledging, in this case through heroine single mother Daniela's straightened circumstances as an apartment building concierge, that not all Paris residents live a life of luxury.
The hero and heroine are endearingly likeable people, so loyal to those they love and reluctant to move on. The secondary characters, right down to Baloo, the family dog, are great, too, and include a few who aren't particularly nice but add to the drama of the main couple's initial connection and reluctant courtship. I can't think of anything I did not appreciate in this story, which was a quick read for me and well-written. I have read a number of the author's works, both contemporary romance and science fiction fantasy romance, and expect a good, obstacles overcome story with heart and passion. This one did not disappoint.
I read a complimentary advance copy of the book; this is my voluntary and honest review.
