Somewhere between dating and eternal bliss lies a secret world of glamour, opulence, decadence and the "real" amorous adventures of the "haut monde." Paris is a sexy, sinful romantic playground--and what could be more thrilling than to be an American girl let loose in the City of Lights? Alexandra Ward is a Sorbonne student with a fabulous French boyfriend who's just gone AWOL and a growing love affair with all things Parisian. She realizes her new life "a la Francais" feels entirely like play-acting--in a good way. But what happens when a playful flirtation with the CEO of an international luxury conglomerate turns into not just a "dejeuner"--lunch-- at the Ritz, but diving for canary diamonds in the famous swimming pool of the Hotel Ritz? And when that same Master of the Monde (who just happens to be married, "bien sur") asks Alexandra to be something more than a date but something, well, "different "than a girlfriend? "French Trysts" is about slipping into a new life like it's a couture suit, about the thrill of seeing what really goes on behind the gated "Hotel Particuliers" of the rich and famous "Bon Ton de Paris," about the power of sex and the redemption of true romance. Praise for Kirsten Lobe's "Paris Han"g"over" "A witty mousse."--Jacquelyn Mitchard, author of "The Deep End of the Ocean" "Wickedly entertaining."--"Chicago Tribune " "Decadent, sexy."--Frederic Beigbeder, author of "99 Francs "and "L'egoiste romantique" "
