Frenched By Melanie Harlow



When Tucker Branch, playboy heir to Branch Bolt and Screw, screws and bolts a week before their wedding, Mia Devine wants nothing more than to crawl under her newly monogrammed sheets and plan a funeral for her dignity. But her friends convince her that bitter tastes better when it’s drowned in Bordeaux, so Mia grits her teeth and packs her bags, determined to make the best of her luxurious Paris honeymoon—alone. 

She never planned on meeting Lucas Fournier. 

The easygoing bartender’s scruffy good looks and less-than-sympathetic ear annoy her at first, but when she takes him up on his offer to show her around the city, she discovers that the romance of Paris isn’t just a myth. 

Nor is the simultaneous O. 

The last thing Mia needs is another doomed love affair, but since she only has a week, she figures she might as well enjoy la vie en O with Lucas while she can. But each day—and night—with Lucas is better than the last, and suddenly her heart is telling her this is more than a rebound fling. 

Is it just the seduction of Paris…or could this be the real thing? 


Frenched is a sweet, contemporary, romance novel, with a hint of comedy and steamy sex scenes. Seriously, they were really HOT!! 

I loved the character, and although it started off really great, it dragged kind of in the middle, then the ending was sudden. It didn't seem to go anywhere. Although I'm told there is another to follow on called Yanked, Its meant to let the book down. Which is something I don't want. I was told by a few friends and fellow readers that Melanie completely changes Lucas. His whole personality. Which I personally don't want to read. I left the book on a happy note and it's staying that way. 
What can I say? I'm a romantic. 

The book is a journey (Literally) of Mia finding herself after been dumped a week before her massive (kind of celebrity) wedding. Mia and Lucas become close, and the sexual attraction is strong between the two, and even I felt uncomfortable during them moments. I just wanted to slap their heads together and say hump it already. 



All in all a sweet story, and some amazing characters.
