Welcome to day nine of my
#FrenchVillageBookworm Advent Calendar where every day in December I am sharing
a book set in France.

My book today is French Kissing
by Lynne Shelby, a novel with a beautiful cover and a delicious French twist. Anna has been writing
real letters to her French penfriend Alexandre for fifteen years, since they met
on their school exchange. He was a weedy, geeky guy who over the years she has
shared many things with, but they haven’t met up since school. As soon as I
read the penfriend concept of this book in the synopsis I knew this was a book
for me. I have fond memories of writing to my French penfriends and I’m sure
I’ve even got the letters stashed away in a box somewhere.

When Alex writes with news he has
been offered work in London, Anna invites him to stay with her until he is settled.
It doesn’t take a genius to work out that life is about to get tricky for Anna.
Alex is now tall, gorgeous and single, her boyfriend Nick isn’t happy and her
friends are hanging around her flat like bees around a honey pot. Alex’s presence
certainly gives Anna lots to think about and that is before he invites her to
Paris for a photography exhibition.
However, as in all good chick-lit
it takes more than a handsome Frenchman to make a plot. There are twists,
circumstances, disappointments, surprises, tears and frustrations. I loved it
all and the warm squishy glow it left me with too. Thanks Lynne.
