Basically penniless French art student Alexandra looks
forward to the good things in life. At 25, she has no
savings to speak of, but longs for the grace and
sophistication of French women. Her whole life changes
after meeting the richest man in France, who quickly turns
her whole life upside down. She soon becomes the most
sought after woman in France.
However, is this who she really wants to be? A courtesan
catering to men? To discover true happiness, Alexandra must
find out what and who she wants in life.
This is an entertaining, charming, not to mention very
sexy, look inside the life of a courtesan. While Alexandra
may seem shallow, in the end she shows true heart and
courage. Kirsten Lobe is an expert at witty banter,
but could have left out some of the raunchy puns. A quick
read for anyone who wants an imaginative afternoon in Paris.
Somewhere between dating and eternal bliss lies a secret
world of glamour, opulence, decadence and the real amorous
adventures of the haut monde.
Paris is a sexy, sinful romantic playground — and what
could be more thrilling than to be an American girl let
loose in the City of Lights? Alexandra Ward is a Sorbonne
student with a fabulous French boyfriend who’s just gone
AWOL and a growing love affair with all things Parisian.
She realizes her new life a la Francais feels entirely like
play-acting - in a good way. But what happens when a
playful flirtation with the CEO of an international luxury
conglomerate turns into not just a “dejeuner” —lunch— at
the Ritz, but diving for canary diamonds in the famous
swimming pool of the Hotel Ritz? And when that same Master
of the Monde (who just happens to be married, bien sur)
asks Alexandra to be something more than a date but
something, well, different than a girlfriend?
