ABOUT THE BOOK

Parisian reunion. With the one that got away!

Celebrity chef James Harrington never expected to find himself face-to-face with Chloe, his first love, again… Especially, with her working as a chambermaid at his luxury hotel! Their chemistry’s as strong as ever, but she’s hiding a secret. Can James convince Chloe that their love is worth taking a chance on – again?

MY REVIEW

Who can resist Christmas in Paris?  I’m always a sucker for a second chance romance and Chloe and James’ story is sweet and charming with a tragic past.

Chloe is an heiress who has been controlled all of her life, but she left her asinine father and weak mother years ago to live in Paris. In her own apartment. Making her own money working three jobs. Her decision was brave and necessary to become her own woman and move on from a distressing past. Now the man she loved passionately as a teenager has found her and wants her in his life again but at what price?  James has his own successful life as an executive chef in London and she has her life in Paris. She will not compromise her happiness and be told what to do or told where to go again. There is no future for them when their dreams are in two different countries.

There is no doubt Chloe and James love each other. It’s in the way they touch. It’s in the way they finish each other’s sentences. It’s in the way they had no one else in their lives for the 10 years they were apart. I was thrilled when Chloe finally confronted her past and I was impressed with James’ reflection on mending fences in his family as well as reflecting on what he really wanted for his own future. They are very accepting and loving characters and one cannot help but fall in love with them. Kudos to James’ twin sister, Sally, for her unwavering support and giving her brother another woman’s perspective on his situation.

Overall, this is a beautiful romance that is meant to be with lovely characters and enchanting settings. I just had one issue with a disturbing event (don’t want to give it away) that happened when Chloe was young. I felt that something could have been done to rectify it.  

Thank you to Ms. Fielding for giving me the opportunity to read this book with no expectation of a positive review.
