Finding Paris: A Novel

Going to Paris had always been a dream for Julia and Kathy, two women who meet at a beginning French class and become fast friends. Julia is an empty nester whose husband is leaving her and daughter won't return her texts. Kathy is a type-A workaholic who gave up on love after a painful secret. After both their lives implode, leaving them with nothing to wake up to in the morning, they say, "What the heck, let's go to Paris!" and finally live out the dream they've been too busy to live out before. Once there, tensions mount and drama unfolds as they struggle with their new friendship and the cultural differences of the city, forcing them to take responsibility for their own isolation and unhappiness. But, with the help of romance, salted butter, the French countryside, vintage shops, and bread...lots of bread, Paris teaches both women lessons they desperately needed to learn, while having an adventure of a lifetime!
