All Paths Lead to Paris was a deliciously fun escape into the world of fashion, fame, and fake dating gone totally off the rails. Aurie’s double life—balancing an online persona, a secret real romance, and unexpected feelings for her fake boyfriend—made for a whirlwind of drama, humor, and heart.
The Parisian setting added an extra layer of charm (seriously, who doesn’t love a love triangle in the City of Love?), and the tension between Aurie, Kylian, and Remy kept things exciting. Between swoon-worthy moments, influencer mishaps, and high-fashion chaos, this book delivered on the fun while still giving Aurie a journey of self-discovery.
If you love fake dating, messy romance, and a dash of Parisian magic, this one was très magnifique!
Thank you to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I ended up falling sick and was not able to finish this book in time for review but I hope to be able to once the book is released since I enjoyed the author's first book.

Thank you to NetGalley, Random House Children’s and Delacorte Romance for providing this book, with my honest review below.
All Paths Lead to Paris was a cute teen romance taking place in dreamy Paris. And, as escapist as the setting was, the story outshone the location with vibrant characters who will no doubt be fan favorites to younger adults as Aurie, Remy, and Kylian are all distinctly unique but seamlessly move the story along. Through Aurie’s perspective we learn a bit about the life of a young fashion influencer who has been loved amongst her followers from a young age. Remy, meanwhile, is a talented musician whose early loss of his parents caused him to self isolate, except where Aurie is concerned. As the two are finishing up school in Paris they’re also embarking on a fake relationship to boost each other’s recognition… until an accidental press storm focused on Kylian helping Aurie when she was in a jam overwhelms their initial plans and puts the three on a path of shenanigans. A bit of a love triangle, a bit of subterfuge, and some very good intentions make this book a ton of fun.
Definitely sweet and appropriate for younger teens but as mentioned the characters and the plot line are well done enough to hold the attention of young adults - and older ones too. It would be a big miss to not transport yourself to Paris and join the three teens in their unique world.

I’m always a fan of celebrity or influencer reads and find the insights fascinating! I love how we followed both Auries ups and downs with the life that she lives.

Who doesn’t want to see inside the life of a fashion influencer? This story has everything that a young adult drama should: fake dating, college decisions, and the power of a loving community of family and friends. Aurie is a seventeen year old French fashion influencer, dealing with the usual everyday issues of a 17-year-old’s life: school stress, boy drama, and invasive paparazzi. Another big part of her life, though, is her dyscalculia. I had never heard of this disability before — she often mentions the lack of awareness about it — but I deeply appreciated empathizing with her experience of this condition. She perseveres through the challenges this condition adds to her life, as well as the complexities of life as a social media celebrity. She, like every teenager (and adult for that matter) processes her place in the world and over-processes her mistakes, especially those that hurt others. And finally, she so honestly captures the balancing act of life with two distinct identities: American and French, yet neither fully as she has one parent in each continent. Aurie, in every area of her life, walks the delicate line of both/and.
Now, the drama. Again, I love a good behind-the-scenes of celebrity life, especially if it involves fake dating and real feelings. This story’s love plot did not disappoint. There were some twists that I definitely didn’t expect, but the ending truly seemed like the only way things could, and should, have worked out. The pressure of the public eye on Audie’s every move, especially in her love life, added extra weight to each decision she made, keeping me turning pages until the end.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I think it will especially strike a chord with young adult readers because of its down-to-earth characters, dreamy setting, and relatable everyday and philosophical struggles.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Huge thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. This was a super cute YA romance with lots of charm! However, moments of it felt a bit stilted. For example, I would to have liked to have seen a bit of a stronger sense of overarching need vs obstacles from the main character. Either way, I had fun with this one overall and may recommend it to readers depending on their taste.

I loved All Paths Lead to Paris! It was a feel good book in a time when I needed it most. I loved how Aurie messed up at first but then turned everything around to have her happy ending. It was very well written and I loved how I could picture everything going on.

All Paths Lead to Paris is a cute fake
dating, friends to lovers romance book between two celebrities (and an additional cute math tutor). I gave this book a 4.5 rounded 5 stars because it was really good but wasn't super noteworthy and a book I would spend time thinking about after I read it wondering what's next. I would say objectively speaking it was so cute and amazing. To me and my taste in books it didn't seem like a book I would gush over, the appeal for me wasn't all there. But I do have to say I love the dyscalculia and anxiety rep and the Parisian setting was super cute, it's been a while since I read a book taking place in a European country.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. I really enjoyed this author’s other book “All Roads lead to Rome”. Sadly, this has almost the exact same storyline but wasn’t nearly as good. This is about an instagram influencer who is fake dating her musician boyfriend. It is missing the charm of the first one.

what a sweet ya romance !! 🫶🩵🤍 all paths to paris explores online personas & how they might not be as perfect as the camera portrays their lives to be— a well-trodden trope that is nevertheless still important for teens to read about. it’s also a great set up for a romance: romance is real, raw, and difficult— something an influencer’s life, at least that which is offered to the public, isn’t bc of careful curation. our fmc is wonderful. i really enjoyed going on her journey, both her emotional/romantic arc & her character development arc.

This was a beautifully done Parisian romance novel and had that feel that I was looking for and enjoyed the concept of this. It had that feel that I was looking for and enjoyed the overall feel of this, the characters had that feel that I wanted and enjoyed the way the story was being told. Sabrina Fedel wrote this perfectly and left me wanting to read more.

This was such a cute book! It gave the perfect vacation vibes and would be a perfect book for the summer time!

This book is all about finding authenticity in a world obsessed with appearances, and it’s as swoon-worthy as it is heartfelt. A must-read for lovers of fake-dating chaos, Parisian vibes, and messy, beautiful romances.

It’s a delightful mix of fake dating tropes, real emotions, and the struggle to balance public and private lives. Full of twists and heartwarming moments, it’s a perfect blend of romance and self-discovery.

Ever wish you could peek behind those perfect Instagram posts? This book lets you do just that, whisking you off to Paris where social media star Aurie McGinley is about to learn that real life is way messier - and more interesting - than any filtered photo.
On the surface, Aurie's got it all: the picture-perfect relationship with Remy, the dreamy Paris backdrop, and enough followers to fill a small country. But then there's Kylian, who makes her feel something that can't be captured in a carefully staged photo. Watching Aurie navigate between her curated online persona and her messy real-life feelings is like watching a friend figure out what actually matters.
What makes this story work is how it captures those moments we all have - you know, when life refuses to follow the script we've written for it. The romance is swoony as heck (it's Paris, after all), but it's the genuine emotional stuff underneath that really hooks you. Aurie's journey from perfectly posed to perfectly imperfect feels honest in a way that's both uncomfortable and incredibly satisfying.
If you're in the mood for a love story that's more than just pretty pictures - one that'll make you laugh, sigh, and maybe rethink your own Instagram habits - this book is your next great read. Just maybe don't blame me if it makes you want to book a flight to Paris.
A huge thanks to NetGalley and Random House Publishin/ Delacorte Press for sharing this heartfelt romance's digital reviewer copy with me in exchange for my honest opinions.
