BLOG TOUR - Christmas in Paris


DESCRIPTION:

Description:

As the snow flutters down on the Eiffel Tower and fairy lights sparkle on the pavement cafés of Paris, meet the girl determined not to fall in love in the most romantic city in the world…

When Brooke arrives in Paris at Christmas, it feels like the perfect place to escape her heartbreak after being dumped by her long-term boyfriend. And while her head might be turned by the romance of couples strolling arm in arm along the riverbank, and the air scented with chocolat chaud, her heart remains firmly under lock and key – this trip is going to be about her.

But when a chance encounter leads Brooke to green-eyed Armand with his dark wavy hair and warm smile, she is annoyed to feel her heart skip a beat… And when he opens his heart to her in a candlelit restaurant and kisses her at the top of the Eiffel Tower, she throws caution to the wind. Armand isn’t her ex – and doesn’t she deserve a second chance at love?

But when Armand begins to blow hot and cold, she wonders if she has been taken for a fool. Why does he lie about where he has been? Who is the mysterious tall blonde French woman who always seems to be watching Brooke? And when Armand leaves Paris without warning as Christmas Eve approaches, will Brooke be able to find out what he is hiding? Brooke will need the courage to leave her own past behind if she is to find magic this Christmas…

A completely gorgeous romantic read that will warm you from head to toe and have you booking a trip to Paris! Fans of Sarah Morgan, Josie Silver and Carole Matthews will be swept away by Christmas in Paris.

MY THOUGHTS:
 
Title:   Christmas in Paris
Author:  Tilly Tennant

Genre:   Women’s Fiction; Romance

No. of Pages:   333

My Rating:   4 Stars 

Brooke is getting over a break up. She and her best friend Felicity have plans to travel to Paris to sell their handcrafted items at the Christmas Markets there. Concerned for Brooke, Felicity suggest they go a week earlier. They can enjoy the sights and sounds of Paris, and Brooke can get a chance to be distracted. 

Their trip should be an exciting one for both of them, and that is exactly what happens. They each meet someone, but most notably, Brooke meets Armand. While the two hit it off, Armand often remains distant, and Brooke is left to wonder if it might be too soon to be in another relationship. 

This lovely read made me feel as if I was wandering about Paris with Brooke and Felicity. In fact, this book reminded me of the time I spent in Wales at a Christmas Market there! I love how Tilly Tennant pulls the reader right into the scenes, making this book a delightfully wonderful read. 

This warm story is about the bonds of friendship, even when situations can pull even the closest of friends apart. I felt very drawn to both Brooke and Felicity, especially as they both had chances at new romantic relationships. This is where this lovely read had an air of mystery, as both Brooke and Felicity were forced to examine their choices with their new love interests. 

For a warm, relaxing read, you can’t go wrong with Christmas in Paris. This is the perfect book to relax with a warm cup of hot chocolate while reading in your favorite chair. 

Many thanks to Bookouture and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.
