I was lucky to be able to work on Kissing My Old Life Au Revoir by Eliza Watson during the editing stages, and I’m excited to bring you my review today! Let’s dive right in…
Summary:
Event planner Samantha Hunter is prepared for a few challenges when escorting a group of good ole boy beer distributors to Paris, the city of haute cuisine and fine wines. However, she doesn’t foresee being passed up for a promotion because she is too professional and doesn’t knock back beers with her clients. Her focus soon switches from landing the well-deserved promotion to finding her free-spirited sister, who lives in Paris and has disappeared, leaving behind family secrets to be uncovered. A sexy puppeteer helps Samantha search for clues to her sister’s whereabouts and teaches her to embrace her inner child. And a funeral-crashing psychic demonstrates the importance of living life to the fullest. It takes Samantha’s life spiraling out of control for her to finally get a life.
Review:
This book was great fun to read! The story starts off right away with a ton of intrigue, and it only gets better from there. I enjoyed the story between Samantha and her wild-child sister, and the other family issues (and secrets) they must work through. It was nice to Samantha as an independent woman with a career-mind, and her journey with her company was interesting – and frustrating at times – to read about. I loved the Paris setting, the mysterious hottie neighbor, and how fast-paced the book could move. One to read!
