"This Isn't like me. I'm not the sort of girl who crosses continents to meet up with a man she hardly knows, Paris hadn't even been part of my travel plan...'
One night in Bucharest, a chance meeting with a charming Frenchman changes journalist Sarah Turnbull's travel plans forever. Acting on impulse, she agrees to visit Frèdèric for a week in Paris, a city Sarah thinks she knows well. That is, until she falls in love...
Put a very French Frenchman together with a strong-willed Australian girl and the result is some spectacular - and often hilarious - cultural clashes. Sarah's clothes, her laugh, her conversation -even how much she drinks -set her apart. Language is a minefield of misunderstanding and the simple act of buying a baguette at the local boulangerie is fraught with social danger.
But as she navigates the high, and lows of this strange new world, from life in bustling inner city quartier and surviving parisian dinner parties to covering the haute couture fashion shows and discovering the hard way the paradoxes of france today, little by little Sarah falls under it's spell: maddening, mysterious and charged with that French specialty - sèduction.
Funny perceptive and poignant, Almost French is the story of an adventurous heart, a magical city - and Finding Love.

"Once upon a time, my entire world seemed like a dream. It was no wonder they called Paris the city of love; because sometimes, you just couldn't help but love it. No matter how much it rejected, betrayed, and turned us away, I would always love Paris the way I remembered it. Before it was stolen from us." Kate was grateful she got to have one good birthday. One, last good memory before it all happened. Before the German soldiers performed one of the biggest round-ups, known to World war two. Before nearly forty thousand Jews were deported from Paris. Before Kate, and her family were kicked out of their own city, their own country, and shipped to one of the most notorious concentration camps in Poland.

With a boy she gradually realises she's in love with, and newfound friends in unexpected places, can Kate set out to save those she loves and more? Or will her decisions render the lives of not only thousands, but her own?Lengkap
