"'Addictive...infectiously so.' Meg Cabot"

Product Description
Among the clothes that Jane Stuart inherited from her late grandmother is a gorgeous- and dangerously sexy- Parisian flapper dress. It's a dress so beautiful that it makes Jane wonder if her grandmother had a secret life before settling down in the small town where Jane now lives. But unbeknown to Jane, the dress has come to the attention of a movie director looking for the perfect outfit for his leading lady to wear in the finale of his 1920s set movie. Stuck in a dead end job since college, Jane's been waiting for her life to start. Now she's been given the opportunity to follow in her grandmother's footsteps all the way to Paris, where love and excitement await her if she's brave enough...

4.0 out of 5 stars Even Grandmothers have secrets, 20 Oct 2007
By Wyvernfriend (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews
  
Jane loved her Grandmother. When her grandmother died Jane inherited a dress. It was dark blue, embroidered with millions of beads and beautiful. A dress that would stop crowds, but why did Jane's Grandmother have it sitting in an old suitcase with a menu for Le Tour d'Argent, a fancy restaurant in Paris?

When she's in college she finds that it's a Parisian dress from 1928 and considered a classic. So she bases a paper on it, calls it "A Dangerous Dress" and her lecturer likes it, enough to send it to an competition, where it wins 3rd place.

This leads Hollywood to her door and a chance to be involved in a film in Paris, which she embraces (even if she has to get an emergency passport!). She finds herself embroiled in adventures and love, as well as the mystery of why her grandmother had that dress. However she also finds herself embroidled in hate and some very low moments.

It's chicklit, it's a romance but it's fun. It's also written in the first person by a character who's a bit of an innocent abroad so those who dislike that will dislike the book, I enjoyed it and found it quite fun, if light.
