Capturing Paris

Katharine Davis. St. Martin's Griffin, $14.99 (243pp) ISBN 978-0-312-34098-8

akThe outwardly enviable and inwardly decrepit Parisian life of ex-pats Annie and Wesley Reed is disrupted by a mysterious, sultry stranger in Davis's debut novel. After meeting Daphne Walker at a dinner party, Annie, at Daphne's urging, pursues her poetry and lands a project writing poems to accompany photographs of Paris. As her poetry career takes off, her relationship with Wesley becomes more disaffected. Dreamy and sentimental, readers with a soft spot for the city of lights will want to give this a look.
