Review for The Paris Wedding by Charlotte Nash

When is it right to follow your heart?

From the plains of rural Australia to Paris, the City of Love, lose yourself in this touching and romantic story by the bestselling author of THE HORSEMAN Ten years ago, Rachael West chose not to move to Sydney with high-school sweetheart Matthew.

Instead she stayed on the family wheat farm, caring for her seriously ill mother and letting go of her dreams. Now, Matthew is marrying someone else. And Rachael is invited to the wedding, a lavish affair in Paris, courtesy of the flamboyant family of Matthew's fiancée - a once-in-a-lifetime celebration at someone else's expense in Europe's most romantic city.

She is utterly unprepared for what the week brings. Friendships will be upended, secrets will be revealed - and on the eve of the wedding, Rachael is faced with an impossible dilemma: should she give up on the promise of love, or destroy another woman's life for a chance at happiness?


My 5 star read

I listened to the audiobook and I was zoned in the entire time.

Rachel is a young woman who put her life on hold to take care of her sick mother and the farm. She loved her mother and was fine doing it. But what she really didnt realize is the life she missed but never knew she wanted. Matthew was the love of Rachel's life.

They separated once Matthew went to college because she could not follow him, she needed to be there for her mother.

Then 10 years later Rachel receives a wedding invitation in the mail and it isnt just any invitation. This invite is to Matthew's wedding and it is all expense paid to Paris.

Now they say that Paris is the place to find love but they never say what kind of love. I believe that Rachel can find just the right love that her soul needs and she does just that.

Now while listening to this book I got all kinds of frustrated with Rachel because I knew she was make some horrible mistakes...but she had to figure them out on her own.

This book will lift you up when you didnt even know you needed to be lifted. This book will make you take a break and stop to smell the roses... in other words this book will make you think more of the things that matter and less of the things we can't change.


Happy reading
