1. Love From Paris - Alexandra Potter

With her never ending passion for what she loves, Alexandra has made her dream come true and made it her job to write her very own novels. Ten books in total have been published so far just like "What's new, Pussycat?" or "Do You Come Here Often?", "Love from Paris" being the newest one. 



How far would you go for love?

When new boyfriend Jack stands her up at the airport, Ruby Miller dries he tears, jumps on the Eurostar and heads to Paris. She thinks she's going there to visit an old friend and have a total break from romance. But the City of Love has other ideas.

A locked apartment where time has stood still, a bundle of long-lost love letters and a flirtatious French lawyer sweep Ruby into a mystery that spans three-quarters of a century. Who is the author of the letters? Why did the owner of the apartment close up the shutters and flee form Paris from the war? And what secret was she hiding?

As the mystery deepens, Ruby turns love detective but it's not long before the ghosts of the past throw her own love affair into jeopardy.

An affecting and hope-filled posthumous collection from the talented young Yale graduate whose title essay captured the world's attention in 2012 and turned her into an icon for her generation.

Marina Keegan's star was on the rise when she graduated magna cum laude from Yale in May 2012. Tragically, five days after graduation, Marina died in a car crash.
