This book wasn't very good, as you could probably tell, it's a copy of the 1954 film Sabrina which I just love that movie but unfortunately the book left out or changed everything that made Sabrina great so we're just left with a bad rip off. The writing is just the juvenile type of young adult books, which basically means you would only like it if you were a young teen. If you want intelligently wrote books in this series then try the Elizabeth Chandler books (especially At First Sight and Hot Summer Nights) and there are many others too (I would recommend Our Secret Love, It Had To Be You or Some Girls do etc.) but in all series like these, there will always be ones that are just not wrote to their potential like this one. The only thing I can say is the ending was cute, but Ethan was the only character that didn't make you want to skip a page. At least the model on the book is very pretty.

I know these books are dated now but as a romance reader, having a selfish heroine is off-putting regardless of when it was published. This was a DNF for me.

One of my favorite books ❤️

If I had to listen to this witless heroine blather on about Jack for another billionty pages, this book would’ve ended up embedded in the wall. To save on home repairs I’m tapping out now.

Gigi has always had a crush on the boy next door. After spending a year in Paris she believes now is her chance with Jack. Will it be everything she hoped for? What about these strange new feelings she has for Ethan, Jack's younger brother? Which brother is the right one for her?
To be honest in rereading this book I thought I remembered which brother she ended up with but I was wrong.

When I read it years ago it was a five star read. Now reading it I give it four star because I found Gigi annoying at the beginning with her obsession with Jack.

A tredici anni, Soobie scriveva:

Bel libro. Gerolyn va a Parigi per un anno a studiare e non fa che pensare a Jack, il suo vicino di casa in America. Quando tornerà a casa, Jack si metterà con lei e Gerolyn capirà che non è lui che ama.

Bwahaha... found this in the book sale. I LOVED this book when I was a kid, and haven't seen a copy in years. It was so bad!

Before I even knew anything about Sabrina I read this and loved it. One of my favorite teen reads. Read it multiple times and can still remember parts of it many years later.

I liked this book. It was a good little romance. I love the Love Stories series and this one was pretty good.
