both of these handsome, charming men? A good friend from
Uni answered that question. Chose a love story and stick to
it. That's what she did.
I must admit I did not agree with her choice. I finished the
book
with a heavy heart but felt better as I read the epilogue.
True, any girl would be touched, tempted. swayed by the
romantic and nostalgic weekend in Paris. Remembering where
their love began, a perfect place to propose and Maddy said,
"YES."
This is a heartwarming yet heartrending story that is filled
with buckets of charm, laughter, bittersweet memories, and, in
the end, a choice. If I were to pick one word to describe my
feelings after reading YOU'RE THE ONE THAT I WANT, it would
be wondrous! I loved it! Giovanna Fletcher has a new fan.
