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...
Over the course of one beautiful Parisian day three Americans will each spend the day with a private French tutor. Each is trying to get away from something--an event, an intolerable situation, a rut--and each is trying to make their way to something better. Josie, a high school French teacher, is ...

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...

Set during one day in the city of seduction, three French tutors and their American students walk around Paris, think about love and consider having sex in five loosely connected stories. There are no simple, romantic happy endings here, which could make the book more compelling and realistic, but s...
This delightful book is my kind of beach read: fabulous urban location (Paris!), seemingly uncomplicated characters who actually have great depth, lovely language, and heady discussions of love and loss written in an accessible and deft way.Initially, I thought I wasn't going to dig this book since ...
