Emma Robinson - One Way Ticket to Paris
Published by: Bookouture
Review format: Ebook
I just loved this book, it was a truly heartfelt and honest story that warmed my heart. I devoured it in one sitting as the beautiful writing had me turning the pages with such frenzy I just had to know what happened next.
Set against the romantic backdrop of Paris we see three women with stories that intertwine at crucial moments in their lives. Female solidarity plays a huge role in this book but each character finds their brave front to the world rocked when their vulnerability is exposed as secrets start to emerge one by one.
Kate has been caring for everyone her entire married life but seems to have lost herself along the way. Shannon is ballsy and fiercely independent but is hiding heartbreak on the inside. Laura is at a crossroads in her longterm relationship to a commitment-phobe who refuses to lay down roots. All three women have actions to deal with and decisions needing to be made but I love how they guide each other through their choices portraying female friendship at its best.
One Way Ticket to Paris is a perfect read and one not to be missed. I love this book and everything it stands for and couldn't recommend it highly enough.
When I was a kid and I’d lost something, my dad always said ‘Go back to the place you last had it’. The problem is that what I’ve lost is… me.
Kate loves her family more than anything, but recently she has started to feel invisible. Lying awake at three a.m. as her husband snores, panicking about shopping lists, birthday parties, and the school bake sale…
She finds herself in the kitchen, gulping water, staring at a postcard of the Eiffel Tower from Shannon, her best friend.
Paris, with its red wine, slippery cobbles and curly lamp posts. Where the scent of freshly-baked croissants hangs in the air, and Kate last remembers feeling like herself.
The postcard is a year old. It has just one line on it: When are you coming?
An inspiring, feel-good tale of friendship, love, and what happens when running away is the only way you can find your way home. Perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Jane Green and Marian Keyes.
