"It took all of two paragraphs for me to fall head-over-heels in love with this story. Naive, plucky Margot was perfection, New York City brimmed loud and clear from the pages, and I absolutely adored the love story. I’ll be thinking about this one for a while."Jenna Evans Welch, New York Times bestselling author of Love & Gelato
A charming, high-energy romance in the city that never sleeps about a girl who can't wait to be a part of Manhattan's restaurant scene—and find the boy she fell for last summer. Perfect for fans of Emily in Paris!

Welcome to New York. . . . He’s been waiting for you.

Margot hasn’t been able to stop thinking about Zach, the dreamy American boy she met one magical night in Paris. In an instant, they fell head over heels in love and spent the perfect evening ensemble—sealed with a kiss and a promise: if the universe wants them to be together, fate will find a way. 
Flash forward one year later: Margot has finished high school and is newly arrived in New York, ready to roll up her chef's-coat sleeves in Manhattan’s bustling restaurant scene, celebrate her father’s upcoming wedding . . . and reconnect with Zach. 
But a lot can happen in a year, and promises made in the shadows of the Eiffel Tower look different in the neon glow of the Big Apple. Margot spends the summer desperate to find Zach and enlists the help of Ben, the sweet line cook at her restaurant. Margot is convinced she found her soul mate that night in Paris . . . but what if the universe has a different plan?
Anything’s possible in New York City. Especially l'amour, American-style.

      In this Serendipity and An Affair to Remember mash-up from Jouhanneau (Kisses and Croissants), aspiring chef Margot and globe-trotter Zach, both 17 and white-cued, promise to meet again in a year on the Times Square steps following an unforgettably romantic night in Paris. They don’t exchange contact information, believing they’re “meant to be” and that fate will lead them back to each other. A year later, Margot, eager to escape her small French countryside town, jumps at the opportunity to work at a prestigious N.Y.C. restaurant, but the gig isn’t what she initially pictured. Instead of exercising her cooking skills, she’s a dishwasher in a fast, harsh environment. The night she’s supposed to reunite with Zach, Margot is stuck at work, and when she arrives late to their meeting spot, Zach isn’t there. Gutted, she mourns her chance at love, until a coworker offers to help her find him. Together the teens explore the city, seeing the sites, sampling local eateries, and growing closer, even as Margot pines for Zach. Rapid pacing and an upbeat plot paired with delectable descriptions of N.Y.C.’s finest cuisine make this cheery romance perfect for foodies and hopeful romantics alike; Margot’s yearning for both epic romance and culinary prowess is palpable throughout. Ages 12–up.
