Foreign Tongue : A Novel of Life and Love in Paris

Anna has just had her heart broken in LA. But unlike most women who have been unlucky with love, she has an enviable backup plan - she uses her dual citizenship and moves to Paris to live in her aunt's empty (and free) apartment. Paris, the city of romance, might not seem like the easiest place to mend a broken heart, but Anna tries to find solace in the cobble-stoned streets, fresh bread, delectable pastries, and sexy Parisian men. While there, she finds a job translating a mysterious, erotic French novel by a famous French author who is staying anonymous. As she is intrigued by his story and taken in by the mystery behind the book, she learns more about herself and how to find the best parts of her French and American self.
