An Irish couple's troubled marriage finds life support on the streets of Paris in this moving novel from the author of The Bridge to Always--A story of love, loss and redemption in one of the world's most iconic cities (Sheila Flanagan).
[This will] squeeze your heart. . . . You really will be hoping for happy endings. You'll care. --Peterborough Telegraph (UK)
Frankly, it is wonderful. --Martin Sheen
Claire and Ronan MacNamara have had a lousy year and are struggling to keep it together. When Ronan suggests a last-minute romantic weekend getaway in Paris, Claire reluctantly agrees. How could a few days in Paris save their marriage?
Of course, Claire and Ronan aren't the only troubled visitors in the City of Love. Harry is a big-shot Hollywood film director, coping with regret over an ill-lived life. Dan is a Boston student who must choose between love and duty. Yeva is a teenage Ukrainian refugee eager to protect her little sister at all costs. And Mireille is an elderly widow from Dijon bravely looking toward her future.
As their lives briefly intersect at points throughout the city, something extraordinary is set in motion . . .
It's not only an entertaining read, it makes you think about issues, including loss, grief, and what we believe is most important in our lives. But what is most memorable and admirable is the novel's clever plot. --The Irish Examiner
A fresh new voice in Irish fiction, a story peopled with original and well-drawn characters and imbued with a delightful Parisienne flavor. --Roisin Meaney, author of Life Before Us
A vividly written confection which transports you to a weekend in Paris. --Dymphna Flynn
