Melanie was in Paris despite her two best friends who were unable to make the trip. And so far the little she has seen of Paris has lived up to her expectations, that is until she is mugged and her backpack where her money, credit card and cell phone are stolen. Lucky for her she meets a hero that tries to chase down her mugger and then wants to help.Drew Eldridge is a very wealthy man who spends a lot of time in Paris for business. He just happens to be in the right place at right time to help a beautiful woman in distress.  He is unable to get her stolen items back however does help her with accommodations.  And the fact that they are from the same state and have a mutual acquaintance shows that it really is a small world sometimes.Melanie and Drew are instantly attracted to each other and spend several fun days seeing the many beautiful places in Paris.  Drew loves viewing Paris in a new light as Melanie is full of child-like wonder as she is seeing places she has always dreamed of in person.  And of course nothing says love like being in Paris.This is a nice romance, very sweet and light.  The two are attracted to each other and there is nothing that is stopping them including drama, they just gravitate toward each other and the next thing you know they are heading home to meet family and riding off in the sunset.  I liked that Drew was from Texas as was Melanie and that they had a common friend, Astrid.  I also liked that this story arc will continue featuring Melanie's friends Astrid and Val in their own novellas.Very enjoyable short romance.Received copy through publisher from NetGalley
