Can’t Wait Wednesday – PARIS IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA by Jenn McKinlay

 

“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, which encourages fellow bloggers to spotlight upcoming releases that we’re excited about.  It is a meme that I have  loved participating in for over a year now, but as Jill is no longer actively posting, from now on I’ll be linking to Can’t Wait Wednesday, hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings, which is a spinoff of the original WoW meme.

My selection for this week is PARIS IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA by Jenn McKinlay.  Everything about this book appeals to me, from the super cute cover to the European setting, to its promise of a second chance romance.  It sounds like it will be the perfect summer read!

 

PARIS IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA by Jenn McKinlay

Publication Date: July 21, 2020

 

From Goodreads:

A thirty-year-old woman retraces her gap year through Ireland, France, and Italy to find love–and herself–in this hilarious and heartfelt novel from New York Times bestselling author Jenn McKinlay.

It’s been seven years since Chelsea Martin embarked on her yearlong post-college European adventure. Since then, she’s lost her mother to cancer and watched her sister marry twice, while Chelsea’s thrown herself into work, becoming one of the most talented fundraisers for the American Cancer Coalition, and with the exception of one annoyingly competent coworker, Jason Knightley, her status as most talented fundraiser is unquestioned.

When her introverted mathematician father announces he’s getting remarried, Chelsea is forced to acknowledge that her life stopped after her mother died, and that the last time she can remember being happy, in love, or enjoying her life was on her gap year. Inspired to retrace her steps–to find Colin in Ireland, Jean Claude in France, and Marcelino in Italy–Chelsea hopes that one of these three men who stole her heart so many years ago, can help her find it again.

From the start of her journey nothing goes as planned, but as Chelsea reconnects with her old self, she also finds love in the very last place she expected.

    Coming out of a long period of grieving is definitely a difficult thing to break through, and it sounds like this character is going to get quite the wake up call. I would like to see how her journey goes.
