About this deal

A gloriously escapist read, evoking all the sparkling sights, sensations and style of the most romantic city in the world with the irresistible effervescence of Veronica's writing. A tonic for any romantic soul. I absolutely loved it! * Kate Eberlen * Oh my goodness I absolutely loved this so much, I just couldn’t get enough of it, it had everything that I love about a good book. Wow, wow, WOW. Her best and most perfect book yet. I adored every word. Sublime, as always ' JILL MANSELL

Tesco's , vibrant pink with a gold resplendent Eiffel Tower standing out . I knew I immediately had to read it. I've read quite a few of Veronica Henry's book and she has such a lovely way with the written word and plots that makes me a happy reader and she done it again this time too. Of course, the key theme is for Juliet to find closure for her earlier visit. To discover a way to close the door on her earlier experiences and find comfort in her memories. That need finds fulfilment in a wonderfully soothing way. As the implications of how her time ended are brought to light, there is a healing and understanding that left me feeling happy. I must admit that I will read anything about the city Paris whether it's fiction or factual. I have a love affair with Paris after several visits on holiday. It's a favourite city to visit for me , and reading about it always has me feeling nostalgic for those lovely times. I thoroughly enjoyed Juliet’s friendship with both Nathalie and Olivier. There’s something quite wonderful about friendships that endure the pressures of time. To return to an earlier feeling of love and familiarity with no more than a slight hiccup in connection is a very special thing. In particular, I would love to grab a table at The Girl Who Cried Champagne and sample the mouth-watering food that is described there. I knew that I was in for a very special treat when I started reading. There’s something quite magical about the way Veronica Henry writes and I happily submitted to the text and was swept away. There is a dual timeline feel to this story as we read about Juliet’s modern-day visit to Paris, alongside revisiting her early experiences as a young girl.I'm so glad they got reunited though at first it wasn't smooth, they just are so good together as a couple. Obstacles happen , but you can feel the chemistry between the two lead characters as you are swept along with them as they explore Paris together. Absolutely perfect for anyone who loves Paris and twisty love stories - a five star read!' LORRAINE BROWN Juliet’s separation and subsequent divorce from her husband are told with real warmth and I was left wishing that all relationships could end so beautifully. Alas, that is but a dream. As she arrives in Paris, Juliet is enchanted by the bijou apartment that she has rented and gets a real feel for life as an artist. As her memories from her earlier visit return, it’s not easy to understand why she ever left her original life behind. Of course, as we follow her experiences reuniting with former friends, we learn more about her reasons for leaving. Paris is the real star of the story. This is the Paris of love stories, full of lovely shops, beautiful art and friendly bar men, a Paris where all of the men are good looking and the women are impossibly well-dressed. It’s probably not very realistic on an every day basis but the book certainly made me want to revisit the city and to try and find some of Juliet’s bars, restaurants and markets.

Wow, wow, WOW. Her best and most perfect book yet. I adored every word. Sublime, as always' JILL MANSELL It's a lovely story of a woman finding herself again after one phase of her life comes to an end as well as finally coming to terms with events of thirty years earlier and is written with all of Veronica Henry’s usual flair and warmth. A great piece of escapist fiction to curl up with. A sumptuous, joyfully indulgent treat of a book. As sparkling and romantic as the city itself, if Eurostar bookings don't go up after this is released then I will eat my hat! I devoured it * Cressida McLaughlin * Wow, wow, WOW. Her best and most perfect book yet. I adored every word. Sublime, as always. From now on, I need Ronnie to set all her books in Paris' * Jill Mansell * However there is the boy that is now a man that she left behind with no explanation , Olivier who you can't help but fall for twice over as you read this book. Her first love , that was snatched cruelly away by two very selfish people , one that had me cursing at him for what he did.

Love On the Rocks

Wow, it's not often I want to give 6 stars out of 5 for a book, but this is it. I've read a few Veronica Henry books and enjoyed every one but Thirty Days in Paris, tops them all and feel this will be my book of the year. I didn't want it to end and read this book for hours at a time, needing to know what happens to the main character Juliet and her friends and family next. Juliet was a bit of a dark horse. I felt sorry for her at first with her husband and her kids not really in her life anymore. Then she went to Paris and started to reveal her past and her secrets. It was a great way to tell a story as it felt real. We all have secrets that we haven’t told family, that we hold deep in our hearts, and this felt as if Juliet was sharing this with me.
