All bets are off in the City of Lights . . . where life and love can change in less than a day
Shortly after calling off her engagement, Mira Attwal escapes on an all-expense-paid business trip to Paris. But even the delicious food and flowing wine can’t make her forget her parent’s disappointment at leaving her fiance or the fact that she’s just blown up her personal life.
As the trip nears its end, Mira knows she’s just a few hours from having to face the consequences. Yet, the fates seem determined to keep her away just a bit longer. Subways are missed. Trains simply don’t run. By the time Mira makes it to the airport, there are no new flights until the next day. And the icing on the pain au chocolat? Her arrogant and insufferable co-worker Jake Lewis is in the same boat.
When he suggests that they spend the extra hours together, she’s sure his annoying optimism will be more than she can handle. But as they spend the next twenty-four hours exploring Paris in all its beauty, Mira realizes that she and Jake have more in common than they thought, and he may turn out to be the best thing she discovers in the City of Love.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Filled with delectable delights and heart-tugging insights, this stunning contemporary romance from Moondi (Never or Forever) is a feast for the senses. Thirty-four-year-old Indian American Mira Attwal travels to Paris on a business trip that offers no time to enjoy the city of her dreams. Then her return flight is delayed, giving her an unexpected bonus day in the City of Light. There's only one catch: Jake Lewis, an extroverted white salesman from her company, is stuck with her—and he grates on her last nerve. But what's Mira to do? It's either drag the apparent womanizer along on a truncated tour through Paris as she nurses some personal regrets and reflection or cruelly abandon him in the hotel room from hell. As the pair cross items off of Mira's Parisian bucket list, they come to see each other in new lights. The sharp comedic timing and mouthwatering culinary tour through the city would be enough to carry the novel, but the sheer depth of character development elevate it further as readers are invited along on a journey of discovery through the eyes of two people who, on the surface, have nothing in common. The result will have readers falling in love just as quickly as Mira and Jake do.
