First of all I want to tell you how I got to read these books. I read the books in different order, first I read Love From Paris and then I read The Love Detective, I didn’t know they were two, but never mind, the thing is, once you read one you will totally want to read the other, these book are really fun and easy to read, so you will be able to read them fast because you will not get bored, and if you like reading love stories, then go ahead and read these novels.
Sorry for the spoilers if I give any…I will try to tell very little about the plot.
- The Love Detective
The Love Detective is the story about this English author named Ruby, she writes love stories, however she is having a hard time trying to write, she just had a recent and awful break up with her fiance so she doesn’t seem to find the right things to write, so her agent, Diana tells her to go on vacation for a couple of days, Ruby listens to Diana and decides to go to India, where her little sister is…
She will go on a road with an American stranger and an Indian man, she starts believing in love again, you know when you travel you tend to believe in new things, you meet some people, new places, new experiences, I mean, how could you not to, the Taj Mahal, and all those beautiful places and people, everything is so different from London. However not everything is perfect, because she has many obstacles to overcome, will she be brave enough to finish this trip or will she go back to England before even trying? She starts getting to know a guy who is helping her after all her things were stolen, but Ruby just does not believe in love anymore, or in men, so it is very difficult for her, but the best part of everything is that this journey have so many weird things happening, is it coincidence? is it destiny? This is amazing, somehow all this trip it suits like a puzzle.
I really loved this book, this story is really romantic and so pure, it is my favorite of the two, if you are a person who like love stories then you will probably love The Love Detective.
SPOILER ALERT because now I will write a little about the second book about Ruby.
- Love From Paris
In this book, Ruby decides to go to Paris, after she was supposed to meet her boyfriend, who is coming from the U.S.A., but Jack stands her up at the airport, Ruby lives in London, so she goes to France to visit one of her best friend who is living there, this is so weird, she decides to go with her dog, but she cannot travel with a pet in the train, so she met this nice old man who is travelling with her grand daughter and they will help Ruby and her dog.
Her friend is working on a new project, they are going to sell and apartment that the time had stood still, it is amazing and weird, when Ruby goes to this apartment she finds some letters that seems to have been there for a long time, Ruby decides to read those letter and she will try to find the answer of the mystery, who wrote those letter? Why someone paid the bills for an apartment that was empty? .
She also meets a French lawyer, they talk, he is nice but hey, she has a boyfriend, but she also is feeling a little bit insecure, you know that sometimes you just tend to think way too much and you start believing things that never happened.
In this book Ruby becomes the person who will solve the mystery and she will do her best to answer all the doubts she has, no one really knows what happened in that apartment. Will she see her boyfriend again? Will she find love in Paris?
I really don’t want to say more, but this book is really beautiful too, go ahead and read it, after reading these amazing books I can say that probably I keep reading this author, because I like the way she writes, and sometimes you just need to read and forget about all the stress of the daily life and the kind of books are great for that and well, for believe in love again, READ…
