Series: Love in Translation

A budding theater nerd has her semester abroad all planned out, until a cute soccer player offers to show her the real Paris—the first book of a YA romance series with international flavor!

“A heartfelt romance that’s as delicious as chocolate.”—New York Times bestselling author Ashley Woodfolk

Whitney Curry is primed to have an epic semester abroad. She’s created the perfect itinerary and many, many to-do lists after collecting every detail possible about Paris. Thus, she anticipates a grand adventure filled with vintage boutiques, her idol Josephine Baker’s old stomping grounds, and endless plays sure to inspire the ones she writes and—ahem—directs!

But all is not as she imagined when she’s dropped off at her prestigious new Parisian lycée. A fish out of water, Whitney struggles to juggle schoolwork, homesickness, and mastering the French language. Luckily, she lives for the drama. Literally.

Cue French tutor Thierry Magnon, a grumpy yet très handsome soccer star, who’s determined to show Whitney what she’s missing. Is this type-A theater nerd ready to see how lessons on the City of Lights can turn into lessons on love? The swoony Love in Translation romances can be read together or separately: LOVE REQUIRES CHOCOLATE • LOVE CRAVES CARDAMOM (Coming in May 2025!)
