Our topic for this week is books that Include/Feature [insert your favorite theme or plot device here] (for example: unreliable narrators, coming of age, darkness vs. light, time travel, metafiction, a specific romantic trope, good vs. evil. cliffhangers, flashbacks, plot twists, red herrings, loose ends, stories within stories, meet cutes, symbolism, etc.). I have chosen to look at love stories that take place in foreign countries. (in other words, not in the US)
1. Beautiful Ruins – Jess Walter
2. Royal Holiday – Jasmine Guillory
3. To Sicily with Love – Jennifer Probst
4. Alice to Prague – Tanya Heaslip
5. The Highland Fling – Meghan Quinn
6. Off the Map – Trish Doller
7. One Day in December – Josie Silver
8. French Holiday – Sarah Ready

10. A Caribbean Heiress in Paris – Adrianna Herrera

I love the cover of To Sicily With Love. Lots of Julie Caplin books feature love in a different country.
Here’s mine for this week:
