I Heart Paris – by Lindsey Kelk

Harper, July 2010

Review by Laura Parish.

Angela is in the city of love – but romance is taking a nose-dive…
When Angela Clark’s boyfriend Alex suggests a trip to Paris at the same time as hip fashion mag Belle asks her to write a piece, she jumps at the chance. But even as she’s falling for the joie de vivre of Paris, someone’s conspiring to sabotage her big break. And when she spots Alex having a tete-a-tete with his ex at a local bar, Angela’s dreams of Parisian passion all start crashing around her. With London and her old life only a train journey away, Angela can’t decide if she should stay and face the music or run away home….

Being new to the ‘I Heart’ series, I didn’t quite know what to expect from ‘I Heart Paris,’ and was new to Angela’s story. Once I’d found my bearings with who’s who in terms of characters ( although knowledge of the previous two books isn’t needed to read this one) I couldn’t put it down, (I seem to have been so lucky with good books at the moment.) Angela is a fun character and it doesn’t take long to warm to her and relate to her. I don’t think I’ve ever been envious of a character in a book before. Angela lives in my favourite city and gets to go to Paris too. Lindsey Kelk puts in many plot twists and although I did try to guess what was going to happen, the end still surprised me. I recommend that you read this and read I Heart New York and I Heart Hollywood whilst you’re at it. That’s what I’m going to do.

I'm Laura. I started Novel Kicks back in 2009 as I wanted a place to discuss books and writing - two loves of my life. As someone who has anxiety, these two things give me, and I am sure countless others, a much needed escape.
There is a monthly book club, writing exercises, prompts, reviews, author interviews, competitions and guest posts. I cover many genres and I hope there is something for everyone.
I grew up by the sea in Dorset and currently live in Poole with my husband, Chris and three cats. I love writing and have a BA (Hons) in Creative Writing from Falmouth University. I am writing my first book. If only I could stop pressing delete. Chris has threatened to stop it from working. Haha.
I have always loved creative writing since I was in first school and would very much like to meet my teacher, Miss Sayers, to say thank you for all the encouragement she gave me then.
When not writing, I love reading, cats, Disney, singing (I can't sing but this doesn't stop me,) and falling into a good TV show or film. If I could step into any fictional world, it would be amongst the characters in ABC's Once Upon a Time.
I love reading many genres and discovering new authors.
