LOVED this book - and a big thank you to AJ from Perth whose Goodreads reviews are always an inspiration. 
 First read by this author and what a great story. Mia Devine is a 27 year old list-obsessed event planner from Detroit who has planned her dream wedding to rich, gorgeous playboy Tucker Branch. The week before the big day Tucker calls it off via Dear Jane text from Vegas. Totally blindsided and devastated Mia cocoons herself from friends and family but her two bff's break through her funk. They convince Mia to go on the elaborate pre-paid honeymoon week in Paris and live out her dream vacation sans Tucker. 
 Once she arrives Mia decides to venture outside her list-obsessed by-the-book norm and check out the sights. She ends up lost as she wanders the streets of Paris ending up in front of a bar called The Beaver. Enter bartender Lucas Fournier - total opposite to the perfectly groomed Tucker Branch - with his scruffy, disheveled appearance but what sweet, romantic book boyfriend material. 
 Lucas lives in NYC where he teaches Psych at NYU but spends his summers in Paris where his mother lives and where he spent his early childhood. As Lucas shows Mia the sights of Paris, both on and off her list, the attraction builds and the chemistry SIZZLES. But where Mia dreams of a future married with a family Lucas has other ideas living only in the now. Tons of steamy in this read but also pages of playful banter. 
 Excellent writing, characters, witty charming banter and just a really sweet romance read with no cliffhanger but more of the story yet to come. 
 *5 Stars*
