"If it was possible to give Point Us to Paris more than a five star rating, I would, because it's definitely my favourite of the three so far." Reviewed the Book "So far I'm really enjoying this series" Lost to Books "Okay so I don't like Paris but I did really like this book. I think that's more to do with Aimée's writing and the characters that she has created more than the city itself though... This installment to me felt shorter than the others, or maybe it's the fact that I'm now so addicted to the series that I'm reading them too fast." Book Addict Shaun Part 3 of Summer Flings - a fun, flirty and laugh out loud rom com series of short stories. Ciara would rather be anywhere else in the world than Paris. All the gooey eyed couples and handholding are making her miserable. But Elle doesn't have time for moping - not when she's got the three of them on the guest list of an exclusive club.

"Aimee has brought me some of my favourite books this summer and I definitely won't be glad to see the back of these characters. Flirting in Florence is my easiest five star rating of the series. " ~ Reviewed the Book "There was more emotion in this instalment and I dislike the author for leaving it on such a cliffhanger! It's just mean and makes me want to start the next one even though it's 1am. :-) All I can hope is I get the ending I'm looking for in the final book, which I'm both sad and excited to start." ~ Lost to Books "Hooray, the sixth installment of the summer flings series is here, and an opportunity to check in with Ciara, Gem and Elle and see what they are up to as they arrive in Italy. Infact I was so eager I downloaded it at midnight, snuggled under my duvet, and had finished by 1am." ~ Jill Loves to Read Part 6 of Summer Flings - a fun, flirty and laugh out loud rom com series of short stories. Instead of hitting the designer shops with her friends, Ciara's all about proving Florence can be enjoyed on a budget - and she isn't talking about the sexy Italians Elle and Gem pick up for the duration!
