It Happened in Paris is to be released next month and focuses on wannabe tour guide Evie Dexter...
Evie Dexter, 26, is in pursuit of a career as a European tour guide. Heart set on success and buoyed on by booze, she begins 'enhancing' her CV and soon lands a job with Insignia Tours, guiding their Paris breaks. Bursting with professionalism, Evie quickly checks her copy of Vogue Paris to remind herself where France actually is. Task accomplished, she's determined to become a cultured and respected chaperone. And she would be, if only the French wine weren't so delicious and Rob, her sexy coach driver, so deliciously distracting ...Join Evie on her maiden voyage as Tour Guide Extraordinaire. It's going to be one hell of a ride.
