Could Paris be the place to turn a new page? The heartwarming and uplifting new novel from the author of The Library of Lost Love. 'A gem of a read, the perfect escape for book lovers!' Faith Hogan 'All aboard the book train to Paris, filled to the brim with a fabulous story' Sue Moorcroft

Carly longs to make-over the family's Edinburgh bookshop, but her father is resisting change.

Upstairs, Fran is stumped by her next novel - and with how to fix her marriage.

In the flat below, Elsa cares for her husband, in need of a short breather to gather her strength.

So when a customer drops in and asks for help at his book festival on a train to Paris, it's the chance of a petit escape. And when a book mysteriously appears in the shop that Fran inscribed to a lover in Paris years ago, it seems too serendipitous to ignore. Boarding the train with Carly and Elsa, Fran wonders if revisiting her past will help her move forward.

But there are plot twists ahead. Could the book train to Paris be a passport to joie de vivre?
