Boils down to a simple little love story. M. K. Farrington-Lorch Okay, typical sort of romance. Boy meets girl (in Paris). Boy can't have girl because:a.

She, Olivia Thatcher, slowly wanders away from the crowd. He, Peter Haskell, notices and follows. They make a love connection over coffee. He takes her back to the hotel. She, however, does not return . What a great Read I was browing books and someone told me to get this so I did. As a guy I read most books and always a recommendation. This is a fast read and what an excellent story! I don't normally read this author, I think she is a hit or miss type, but this has my 5 stars and A+++ rating! This is a book that we all can relate to in our relationship. Maybe we forget why we are together or take each other for granted. A book to reflect on.. "Beautiful Story" according to Dr J. I gave the book Beautiful Story Dr J I gave the book 4 stars because the first four chapters were ram ling without a purpose. However much to my surprise the book unfolded a love story that was moving and human. The conclusion of the book showed how people can be driven by greed regardless of the toll on human life for the sake of making profit of wonder drug . Peter was caught between a rock and hard spot but he ended the story as man of honor.. stars because the first four chapters were ram ling without a purpose.
