Kisses and croissants - anne-sophie jouhanneau

The perfect Valentines Day novel! As sweet as a macaron from Laduree, this romantic novel set in Paris about an American ballerina and a charming French boy is parfait for fans of American Royals and Netflixs Emily in Paris.

Mia Jenrow has always known shes destined to be a professional ballerina.

In fact, its in her blood--according to family legend, her too-many-greats-to-count-grandmother once danced for the Paris Opera and was painted by Degas himself! Her parents say its just a fantasy, but to Mia its so much more than that.

Its her fate.

Mia is planning to spend a magical summer in France pursuing her dream, but as she pirou-ettes into Paris, she soon realizes it may be a bit more complicated than she hoped.

For starters, theres her rival, Audrey, who will stop at nothing to show her up.

Theres her ballet instructor, whose impossibly high standards push her to the breaking point.

And then .

theres Louis.

Devastatingly, distractingly charming Louis.

Hes eager to show Mia his city--and Mia is more than happy to hop on his Vespa and wrap her arms around him as they pass the gleaming lights of the Eiffel Tower.

Mias summer was supposed to be about ballet--but theres a reason Paris is called the City of Love.
