Seventeen-year-old Mia, an American girl at an elite summer ballet program, has six weeks to achieve her dreams: to snag an audition with one of the world’s best ballet companies. But there’s more to Paris than ballet—especially when a charming French boy, Louis, wants to be her tour guide—and the pair discover the city has a few mysteries up its sleeve.

In the vein of romances like Love and Gelato, this is the perfect summer adventure for anyone looking to get swept away in the City of Love.

Review

Kisses and Croissants is definitely an adorable, sweet and entertaining story! While reading the book I can't stop imagining the beautiful places they both embark together. 

Mia is so passionate with her ballet and I adore her for that. She got accepted to a prestigious ballet academy in France and she is so excited to be there to achieve her dreams to become a professional ballerina. Beside beautiful places that attracts Mia to wonder around France, she meet a cut French Boy, Louis. She is so attracted to him but she needs to focus on her goals and dreams. As Audrey said Mia is full of feelings and her life is full of colors. 

Through her journey in France, she finds a true love, a friendship she would never thought, and solving her family's mystery legacy. I love the setting, the cute, sweet romance between the two which makes me grinning throughout the story and Mia's passion is amazing. Although, it is quite worrying when she so fast in trusting Louis which I am so not recommended if you are alone and never been abroad. Don't trust stranger easily, okay! No matter how cute he is. But this is fiction so yeah. 

Overall, it is a fast pace, unputdownable story. I do enjoy the summer romance and the ballet practice also the story that covers through friendship, hope, dreams, forgiveness and love.
