WARNING: reading Catch Me If You Cannes may result in embarrassing outbursts of belly-aching laughter on public transport. Romantic, funny and full of Cannes Film Festival magic, it's perfect for fans of Giovanna Fletcher, Paige Toon and Mhairi McFarlane.
Jess has decided it's time to get out of her comfort zone and live a little. So when her best friend Bryony, a journalist on a gossip magazine, is sent to cover the Cannes Film Festival, Jess decides to seize the day and go along for the ride. Two weeks of sun, glamour and exclusive entry into celeb-filled parties is just the kind of adventure Jess needs.
Reality soon bites though when Jess and Bryony find they're staying in a dingy hotel far away from all the action and Bryony's expenses budget barely covers a glass of local wine. Undeterred, the two women are determined to live like the elite and enjoy one fancy night out to begin their holiday. So what if they have to tell a few white lies along the way? It's just this once. No harm done . . . right?
Full of hilarious one-liners, sparkling blue seas and plenty of romantic moments, Catch Me If You Cannes is the story of two friends, a few white lies and one very sticky situation . . .
I knew from the very first page, the very first line of Catch Me if You Cannes that I was in for a treat. A few pages in and I was in stitches. Honestly this book is hilarious. Every page throws something new and some amusing story.
Jess was a lovable vibrant character whose sunny nature makes up for Bryony’s grumpy days. Both are in harmony with one another and both knows instantly what the other is feeling or need. Theirs is a true friendship, that you instantly warm to and connect with. And Leo and Harvey was so cute.
I love how a little white lie can build and build leading to some awkward situations, an expensive bill and the need to add another little white lie. After all if you’ve started how can you possibly stop? After all there is the beautiful sea views, sunny weather and a little bit of romance.
Catch Me if You Cannes was a fun, hilarious read, that is perfect for whatever your mood. Like always, Lisa Dickenson delivers. And if I’m being honest I think this is the best one yet. If you are after a summery read then look no further.
