Character studies of 3 French tutors and their American students. Nico wants to save Josie. Phillippe wants to bed Riley. Chantal isn't sure what she wants. I liked these stories. All of them take place on one day when a film is being filmed in Paris and each story ends with the filming. None of the...

A Wedding in Provence. Good title for a book. Alluring and memorable. That was my first thought about this book. Then there was the cover. I see that cover and I want to read that story.With that cover and title, I had high hopes for this book. I expected a romantic almost fairy tale like wedding st...
Going into this book, I knew that it would be a wedding type book. I knew that it would be set in a beautiful part of France. I knew there would be some drama. I got all of that plus more.

I described this to a friend like ch...
Review: When I first started reviewing books way back when (seriously, more than 2 years ago), I won a copy of another Ellen Sussman book: French Lessons. Well. That book made me fall in love with the author's writing style. I don't know what it was about that book that made me love it, but I did. O...
I used to love France and all it's beautiful glory as the city of love and passion but somehow this book ruined it for me. Now, I see France as a beautiful city of disloyalty, cheaters and two timers. When I first read the synopsis of the book, I expected exactly that. LOVE. New found love ignited b...
