ALMOST FRENCH

"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.
