This is one of my favorite Jenny Colgan stories. I love the Paris theme, personalities, and plot line. As always I can’t wait for the next story and hope some of these books have a follow up.

The Loveliest Chocolate Shop in Paris is another delightful work by Jenny Colgan. It's a charming and heart warming story about having second chances. The Paris atmosphere and descriptions were beautifully written, and I wished I were there. This story will make you smile and fill you with hope. Quite lovely read! Thanks to NetGalley for an arc in exchange for an honest review.

I fell in love with the main character Anna. She has an accident in a chocolate factory. She's persuaded to work for a well renowned chocolatier. While there she meets someone, and she starts to fall for him. All the while you get glimpses of the past life of her boss and former teacher while the teacher was in Paris when she was a young teenager. A wonderful love story set in Paris.

Oh how I loved this book! It was filled with memorable characters and lots of places in Paris I recognized and wish I could revisit. Jenny Colgan rocks and this may be her best yet.

I loved this book. It is about lost love and finding happiness in unexpected places. I want to go to Paris and eat chocolate and just wander around Paris. I laughed and I cried then I went and ate some chocolate. This is my first book by Jenny Colgan but it will not be my last. I intend to read everything she has written.

Told in two timelines, from two perspectives, this story follows modern-day Anna and 1970s Claire through the same streets of Paris. It starts off a bit weirdly, with a freak accident and the two women reuniting in the same hospital ward, but I guess the author needed an impetus to begin the action. The descriptions of Paris were enough to make me want to visit a place I’ve never had an inkling to see before. The multiple romance lines don’t really leave much to mystery, but it’s still sweet to read. And the ending was incredibly sad. It’s a clean romance of love, loss, and overcoming…but it’s also a story of chocolate! At the end are some great recipes that I look forward to trying…

Never has a book made me want chocolate more. Adorable story, and delectable descriptions of the most amazing sounding desserts/chocolates. Jenny Colgan does it again!

Wonderful book if you are in the mood for a cute, romantic comedy.

I enjoyed the stories of Claire and Anna and their journey and developing love affair with Paris. It’s a charming story, full of romance but with that touch more so not to make it sickly sweet.

I’ve never been to Paris and yet I feel like I was able to imagine walking the streets and believe I was actually there - wonderfully written!

I just LOVE Jenny Colgan!!! One of my favorite authors. She has done it again. Such an awesome sweet romance. This story makes you want to go straight to Paris. You dive into one of Jenny’s novels and completely get lost into a beautiful world with such warm characters. I started reading this lovely book and read it in one sitting. I never have to read what her novel is about, I just see her book and pick it up right away. She never disappoints.
I highly recommend!!! Thank you so much Netgalley😊👍📚

Another very sweet love story from Jenny Colgan! I loved the two women at the center of this one and the ways each relived her story. The romances were swoon-worthy but they weren’t the entire plot, which I enjoyed. Colgan’s depiction of Paris is also dreamy and makes me want to visit straightaway!
