Publisher's Summary

After learning a shocking truth about her husband's past, forty-four-year-old Vincent Wilde moves to Paris determined to build a new life. She's soon teaching modern art and enjoying a vibrant group of friends-but when she meets a charismatic young man named Loup, her life in the city becomes more thrilling than she'd ever imagined. Somewhere between dinners made together, cigarettes smoked in the moonlight, sexy evenings in nightclubs and long romantic walks along the Seine, Vincent feels herself blossoming.

However, as her affair with Loup intensifies, she begins to wonder about their age difference-a hurdle that's heightened by the fact she's due to see her estranged husband Cillian again at their son's wedding in the summer...

An irresistibly romantic story of a woman remaking her life on her own terms, shot through with nostalgic 90s and 00s playlists and fizzling atmosphere of Paris
