The Paris Model

A Novel

De: Alexandra Joel

Narrado por: Katherine Littrell

A lush debut novel in the vein of Kathleen
Tessaro’s international bestseller, Elegance,
about a beautiful woman working as a model for Christian Dior in postwar Paris,
who discovers astonishing secrets about herself and the fabulous people around
her.

Raised on a vast Australian sheep farm, the beautiful Grace Woods is
compelled to travel to tumultuous, postwar Paris in order to start a new life.
While working as a glamorous model for Christian Dior, the world’s newly
acclaimed emperor of fashion, Grace mixes with counts and princesses, authors
and artists, diplomats and politicians. Amongst those she befriends are Pablo
Picasso, Julia Child, and the future Jackie Kennedy.

But
when Grace falls in love with the handsome Phillippe Boyer, she doesn’t know
that he is leading a double life, nor that his past might hold secrets and lies
that will turn her life upside down.

Based on a true story, The Paris Model by debut
fiction author Alexandra Joel, is an unforgettable tale of glamour, family
secrets, and heartbreak.

Enchanting Love story

Hats off to this love story and the kind ending, it was a good read and kept you on your seats to the next happening. So glad it only referenced the war and not an actual war story but the over all OVER coming of the and rebuild of Paris/ France and how those who survived continued on to live, to love.
Love any story with Paris as the back drop!

What misunderstandings can do to alter lives?

This book has all the misunderstandings one could have in one’s life and those of people that love them

A Paris love story.

More of a romance novel I don’t usually listen to but with enough twists and turns to keep it interesting. And I do love hearing stories set in Paris.

How important it is to communicate.

When we don’t talk to each other and just emotionally make assumptions, so much can be lost. Very interesting story based on that behavior.

If you love Paris

Fun escape to France. Loved the clothes, characters & adventure. Of course I love Paris! A nice simple read.
