This is a very romantic book, and today is the perfect day to read it.Tenley Clarkson's dream has always been to go to Paris, after her relationship with her ex ends she decides to make her dream a reality and embarks in an adventure with her best friend, Lacey.The first night there while sitting at a café taking in the beauty of the city she meets Jayden Matthews and that's when her real adventure in Paris begins.Jayden Matthews is in Paris with his best friend. Him and Brandon, his friend, work construction and Brandon takes care of his elderly grandmother in his free time. But Jayden's real passion is to study the architecture and historic sites of the city of lights. The moment he meets Tenley at that café Jayden knows this is love at first sight and this is it for him, little by little he starts to penetrate the walls that Tenley has built around her heart in order to protect herself from pain and disappointment.I LOVED Jayden, he's sweet, caring and an overall great guy. Tenley is a romantic at heart, she's a sweet girl but at times she comes across as immature. The two secondary characters, Lacey and Brandon are the perfect balance for Tenley and Jayden and they have their own little love story going on. The book has great descriptions of different sites in the city that might work or not for you, depending how much detail you like when you read a book.Overall this is a pretty good book and a good start of her writing career for Danielle. Please note that this is only the first book of this series and it leaves you with a bit of a cliffhanger.
