Fiction. Romance. HTML:

Kelly Rochard is determined to have one last adventure before settling down to married life!

Still, being mugged at the Louvre is not what she had in mind for her long-awaited trip to Paris. Until Will Maguire comes to her aid, and she finds herself completely distracted by the handsome stranger in the Notre Dame sweatshirt.

Kelly can't seem to resist the world's most romantic city or Will, who is determined to show her all its treasures, from the top of the Eiffel Tower to strolls along the Seine.

But will their love last when they're back in plain old South Bend, Indiana, or will they end up blaming their breathless fling on the city of love?

Cute, predictable romance.. I just love the comfy feeling you get from books like this. :)

Girl goes to Paris... Meets Boy when he "rescues" her. They fall in Love. They end up being from the same American town. They meet up back home after saying their tearful good-byes... Have lots of family/personal troubles. Fall in love all over again. The End.

An all in all adorable romance with lovable character. :) Who could ask for more? ( )

This was a very good read. The story had humor and an engaging pair of lead characters who worked out their issues in a logical and caring fashion while growing closer to each other. This was a story about the mistakes people make in their lives and how taking the hard road to fix these mistakes can sometimes lead to something so much better. It's also about what it takes to create a lasting partnership and how no relationship can survive without forgiveness. Wow! All that and humor too!

Kelly is a down-to-earth, steady woman. She's engaged and getting ready to settle into the life that's been prepared for her by friends and family. But, before she takes that step, she wants to find out something about the father she never knew who died before she was born. So she heads to Paris where he was born. She no sooner arrives than she is mugged. He takes her money, passport, engagement ring, and worst of all...the few letters from her father to her mother that were all she had left of him. She's dazed and in shock.

Will is a carefree, irresponsible man who's still running from family responsibilities. He's no knight in shining armor (just ask him)! But something inside him urges him to help Kelly out when he comes upon her immediately after the mugging. What follows is a delightful story about lust and love, lies and forgiveness, and learning what you really want...and trust. The story was tight and flowed well. There were no TSTL moments and no HUGE MISUNDERSTANDINGs. The characters liked each other, were nice to each other, and quibbled with each other...just like a real relationship! I didn't cry while reading this book...but when I finished I did have a big smile on my face... ( )
