Can the city of love repair what's been broken?
Layla has spent the last year telling herself she's moved on from her divorce. Staying friends with her ex seemed like the mature thing to do - until her former sister-in-law invites her to her destination wedding in Paris - the city where Layla once spent her own romantic honeymoon. Seeing her ex at the wedding, and the family she once called her own, will be a real test of her so-called amicable divorce.
When a late-night conversation with the bride leads to cold feet, Layla suddenly finds herself facing down the groom's brooding best man, Griffin, who will do anything to make sure this wedding happens.
Forced to work together to get the couple back in each other's arms, Layla and Griff find themselves wandering the streets of Paris, dancing in the gardens of Versailles, and sharing romantic candlelit dinners . . . As the city of love works its magic, they begin to understand the heartaches holding them back. But will the hope of a second chance be enough to help them choose love one more time?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Clayborn (The Art of Disappearing) whisks readers to Paris in this steamy slow-burn ideal for armchair travelers. Physician Layla Bailey lives out of a suitcase while subbing for vacationing doctors across the U.S. She likes the work because the weeks-long assignments are a distraction from her recently ended marriage. Then the wedding of her ex-sister-in-law, Emily MacKenzie, brings her to Paris, where Layla spent her own honeymoon. She's determined to be pleasant and mature with her former in-laws, but this proves difficult when her ex shows up with a new girlfriend, and the best man, Griffin, accuses her of encouraging Emily's cold feet. Scarred on the inside and outside by a traumatic fire, Griffin lives like a hermit in Upstate New York and only left his home to support his best friend. He's determined to see the wedding go through and recruits Layla to help fix things between the couple. Clayborn gives both protagonists impressive emotional depth as they work through past heartbreaks and discover unexpected new love. A whirlwind tour through the city of lights—the wedding party cruises down the Seine, explores Montmartre, and takes in Musée Rodin—only enhances the romance. Add in a well-earned happy ending, and this is sure to charm.
