Josie, Riley, and Jeremy have come to the City of Light for different reasons: Josie, a young high school teacher, arrives in hopes of healing a broken heart. Riley, a spirited but lonely expat housewife, struggles to feel connected to her husband and her new country. And Jeremy, the reserved husband of a renowned actress, is accompanying his wife on a film shoot, yet he feels distant from her world.
As they meet with their tutorsâJosie with Nico, a sensitive poet; Riley with Phillippe, a shameless flirt; and Jeremy with the consummately beautiful Chantalâeach succumbs to unexpected passion and unpredictable adventures. Yet as they traverse Parisâs grand boulevards and intimate, winding streets, they uncover surprising secrets about one anotherâand come to understand long-buried truths about themselves.
