Here's the book description:
For Nicole Larson, the Christmas season in Paris is more than just a romantic interlude—it’s also a homecoming. Nic studied abroad in Paris a year ago, and is back in town with her friend Annike to spend Christmas and New Year’s in the City of Light. Of course, now that Nic is there, the chemistry she once had with Parisian hottie Luc instantly reignites. But why fuel a romance that has only three weeks to survive? Nic would rather spend time with her new buddy Mike . . . until it becomes clear that Mike is also interested in being more than just friends. With a backdrop of twinkling lights on the Champs-Elysées and Parisian Christmas carols, it’s going to be difficult for Nic to deny the romance around her. . . .
NYIA's REVIEW
I would rate this book a 3 out of 5 CANDY CANES because while it is a good romantic Christmas story, it is also has some slow places that I had to skip at some points in the book. The story did have a lot of drama and at times I had to a guess at who the main character, Nicole, was going to end up with. The book was descriptive, but didn't over describe details that didn't need to be over described, such as clothing and every accessories that each girl is reading. The boring parts of the book usually included when Nicole was on the set filming, the filming days always seemed the same as the last. Overall, this was a good romantic book and I enjoyed reading it.

I'm wondering if this book is YA or adult. The parts Nyia found too descriptive made it sound more for adults, which might account for Nyia's tendency to skim over parts. Just curious. It's great to hear a teen's review.
I love the candy cane rating and the book cover is a lot of fun.
I agree that the candycane rating is cute! This sounds like a fun read if you're on a plane--to Paris.
She's wanted to go to Paris for 3 years now. So I bought this for her thinking she would love it. She did like the references to Paris.
I agree love the candy cane rating , thanks for such a good review. Some times repetitive actions or scenes make you want to skip over. But glad you really enjoyed the book.
Sounds like a fun read. Great review!
