Giveaway: Paris, My Sweet: A Year in the City of Light (and Dark Chocolate)

Thanks to April Sirianni of Sourcebooks, I am giving away one copy of Paris, My Sweet to one of my U.S. readers.

Book Description:

Paris, My Sweet: A Year in the City of Light (and Dark Chocolate) is a charming memoir about a woman’s journey balancing her love for New York and Paris. Forever a girl obsessed with Nutella crepes, silk scarves, and all things French, sweet freak Amy Thomas landed a gig as rich as the purest dark chocolate: leave Manhattan for Paris to write ad copy for Louis Vuitton.

Amy details her personal insights on being a single thirty-something living in a foreign country, along with her forays into the dating scene abroad, all while sampling the best cakes and pastries that the City of Light has to offer.

Driven to the most delicious spots in Paris and New York, Amy shares the addresses of the best patisseries, boulangeries, and chocolatiers in both cities that have shaped and colored her delicious adventures along the way. Paris, My Sweet is about having faith and making choices, a story of delicious adventures to savor.

About Amy Thomas:

Amy Thomas is a New York–based writer who, for two lucky years, got to call Paris home. In addition to working as a copywriter in advertising, she writes about food, travel, design, and fashion for various publications such as the New York Times, National Geographic Traveler, Town & Country, and Every Day with Rachael Ray. She is slightly obsessed with sweets.

I'd probably go with Cheesecake!

I go with Cheesecake when I'm out, because it's something I love that I don't make at home!
