Book Synopsis:
Sydney Bennett is back! And her pursuit of perfection is alive and
well. Naïve to the core, Sydney believed that when she finally married
the man of her dreams, the hard part was over. Following a civil
ceremony as a means to keep Louis from being deported, Sydney continues
to plan the fairytale wedding that she had dreamed of since the age of
five. Much to her chagrin, she discovers that her mother-in-law is
planning what seems to be a rival wedding in France that SHE has been
dreaming about for her only child since before he was born. How will
poor Sydney be able to ensure two perfect weddings in the midst of
Louis’ fruitless job search? Especially when her mother-in-law’s idea
of perfection appears to be having Sydney embarrass herself in front of
hundreds of French people that she has never met?
As if she didn’t have enough on her mind already, Sydney finds
herself faced with the trials and tribulations of being a wife. Sydney
had always heard that marriage was hard, but she thought that this was
just a ruse that married couples portrayed in a bid to make single girls
feel less desperate. But as the bills pile up and emotions run high,
she realizes that there may just be some truth to this statement. And as
she watches Louis’ perfection fade away before her very eyes, she
begins to wonder if she made a rash decision in marrying a man that she
had known for a mere six months.
With all of the obstacles that Sydney and Louis will encounter, will
they be raising their glasses in celebration or watching their
impulsive marriage crash and burn? One thing is for certain, Sydney and
Louis Durand are headed for one hell of a toast…
Review:
French Toast continues the story of Sydney Bennett as she finds out that marriage isn't always gumdrops and lollipops. What I've loved most about this series is the realism. It's not all perfection and that's what makes it such an amazing romance series. Those looking for characters they can relate to, should definitely read this series.
I've never heard of this series before but it sounds like it'll be great. Specifically because I, like you, can appreciate the 'real' element of a story. Thanks for sharing!
