Product Description

Product Description

*Sleeping with Paris won first place in the Women’s Fiction category of the 2010 Washington Romance Writers Marlene Awards and was a finalist in the 2010 Valley Forge Romance Writers Sheila Contest.

Charlotte Summers is a sassy, young French teacher who is two days away from moving to Paris with the love of her life and from fulfilling her dream of studying at the prestigious Sorbonne University in France. But when she discovers her fiancé’s online dating profile and has a little chat with the busty red-head he’s been sleeping with on the side, she gives up on committed relationships altogether and decides to navigate Paris on her own.

Determined to stop other women from finding themselves in her shoes, Charlotte creates an anonymous blog on how to date like a man in the City of Love—that is, how to jump from bed to bed without ever falling in love. But, with a slew of Parisian men beating down her door, a hot new neighbor who feeds her chocolate in bed, and an appearance by her sleazy ex-fiancé, she isn’t so sure she can keep her promise to remain commitment-free.

And, when Charlotte agrees to write an article for a popular women’s magazine about her Parisian dating adventures—or disasters, rather—will she risk losing the one man who’s swept her off her feet and her dream job in one fell swoop?

A Naughty Pleasure! 20 Jan 2012
By reabeauty TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:Kindle Edition
I really enjoyed this book it was kind of a naughty pleasure as I found everything I loved about this book I really shouldn't be enjoying! Our main character is Charlotte and this kind of character I usually would turn my nose up at with the way she jumps in and out of bed with various men the minute she arrives in Paris she seems to become a true man eater, but the character is saved in my opinion by the opening 3 chapters of the book as this is where we first meet Charlotte and she is likeable from the first time we meet her and you can't help but feel for her character when she has given up everything to up and move to Paris with the love of her life only to find out that he is a big cheat.

The book really grabs you from the first chapter and continues at a great pace with something exciting happening on each page. It is a fun read with some charming and gorgeous Parisians for great eye candy. It feels like a light hearted read but there are some deep emotional situations which occur in this book which really bring the book into its own.

If you are looking for a fun romantic read with a hint of chocolate and a big splash of a Half-Naked French Hottie then this is definitely the book for you!

I must start by saying that I NEVER read 'chick lit'... I am more a serial killer, thriller, horror kinda girl. However, I LOVED this book!

The book follows Charlotte who discovers, just before she is due to move to Paris with her Fiancee, that her Fiancee is cheating on her. Charlotte still moves to Paris and we join her in her exploits as she struggles to overcome her heartbreak with men, wine and through her blog which details the rules of how to 'date like a man'.

This book has all the ingrediants of great 'chick lit' but what appeals to me the most is Juliette Sobanets ability to convey such powerful emotions whilst also making the book funny and easy to read. I think ANY women could relate to the overpowering emotions of anger, grief, hurt and emotion that Charlotte feels even if you may not agree with the ways in which she initially deals with her emotions. However, these 'flaws' make Charlotte even more real and help the reader to feel real connection as Charlotte faces her journey back to love and happiness.

Finally as a lover of Paris I think Juliette Sobanet captures the magic of the beautiful city perfectly!

Sleeping with Paris begins with Charlotte's last day at work. She's said goodbye to everyone and has decided to stop off at Jeff's office with a bottle of champagne. He's not there, so checks her emails on his computer while she's waiting. Up pops a chat box from Brooke, which leads Charlotte to look at the computer history and she discovers Jeff's online dating profile.

Not being able to pass up on the opportunity of studying full-time at the Sorbonne in Paris, she finds herself alone in a dormitory, in emotional turmoil and decidedly unsure if she's made the right decision. Having set up a blog to chart her and Jeff's Parisian adventure, she decides to edit its purpose and instead, gives advice to all the women who've been cheated on by sharing how she is dating like a man. The popularity of the blog escalates and further on into the story the reader realises it has some dire consequences for not only her friends but also her own family. The resulting article for US magazine, Belle, also turns her world upside down.

Charlotte has a need to fill the emotional vacuum left by Jeff and I must admit to feeling sad that she hadn't experienced life `solo' ... without a relationship. Of course as the story progresses we come to understand why and we see her grow and develop. She's not the only character who is broken underneath a mask of coping and living the wild life. Sobanet gets into her characters psyches and creates a story that fits their profiles.

I loved the camaraderie of the friendships and the cultural influence of France. It is clear that the author has spent time in Georgetown, Paris and Lyon, which adds depth to the background.

Throughout the main part of the story we see Charlotte wavering in how she feels about Jeff, which fits perfectly with the grieving cycle of healing. Her confusion is real and the reader identifies with what she is going through. This draws you in. Her growing feelings for Luc are blindsided by her decision to `date like a man.' It is only at a crisis point that she comes to a realisation ... but is it too late?

Sleeping with Paris is a chick lit that is adventurous and thoughtful.

Holiday reading...
A light read, with interesting, if not original premise. If you're a fan of Paris, and modern romance, this book is for you.

Indulgent chick lit
Sleeping with Paris is not quite as lusty a book as the title suggests. The progadanist for 75% of the book is just trying to reset her life in a Parisian setting. Read more
