I’m not sure how I feel about this one still. I liked it while I was reading it but I found it very forgettable. I did really like the characters and the story line.

This has been on my NetGalley shelf for over a year, and I still haven’t picked it up. I've tried, but it just isn't for me (right now). I hope other people enjoy it more than I did.

I liked a romance in paris but didn't love the main characters as much but they do grow on you, It's fun and the Paris of its all is great!

adorable, heartwarming, overly cute, I loved it!! the paris setting put me off a little bit it’s only because i’m french and paris isn’t as romantic from this point of vue but that’s on my part. loved the romance!

I was there with them the whole time- the city, the romance, the food. Completely enjoyable book! Loved it from start to finish.

The pacing on this was slow but I did like the descriptions of Paris. Wanderlust vibes. Though this was a fun little read, I didnt care for the characters as much as I wanted. The relationship between Mira and Jake  felt off for me (like flat). I just wanted more from them.



Thank you so much for this ebook NetGalley and Wattpad books.

Thank you to NetGalley and me Publishing House for the review copy in exchange for an honest review
This was a fun read.
I definitely really loved reading a story about travel and Paris with us book I will say there were some issues for me with pacing it went super slow and some parts and some parts just zoomed by.

Overall, I think it's a good book, and I would recommend it to new romance readers.

24 Hours in Paris was a very quick fun read. Mia and Jake were on a business trip. Mia was just out of a relationship and Jake is quite the lady’s man. They both get bumped from the flight home and have 24 hours to wait for the next flight, Mia uses the time to check off things on her bucket list. Jake ends up tagging along. I loved that Mia had all of her bucket list item for Paris ready to go. Two people that are very different end up becoming friends, and a little bit more. I can’t wait for the adventure to continue.

Thank you NetGalley and Wattpad Books for the ARC for my review.

Loved the Paris descriptions - makes me want to go. The story/characters/romance fell a bit flat for me. I think sometimes Wattpad books just need that little extra oomph!

This was entertaining and enjoyable!! Not my favorite book ever but it was a fun and quick read.

Thank you NetGalley for the eARC in exchange for an honest review

When I think of romance, I think of books just like this one, that gives all the feels and satisfies every romance junkies' heart. This is a perfect book to snuggle up with on any day.

I felt like I was at Parisssssss and I have never been to PARISSSSSSS!!!
Romance in Paris feels different and I want to go there asap after this boooook!

This was a cute read. The trip to Paris and sightseeing was so fun. At times it was so descriptive it felt as if I was actually there. I also really enjoyed the concept of the 24 hour relationship. It was a fun, quick read.

Full disclosure before we get rolling: I’ve known Romi Moondi/her work for over a decade, having read her indie books and helped plan an event that she was a featured author at back in 2013. I was so thrilled that she was finally being traditionally published because I knew she deserved it. Therefore, I was pretty pumped to read 24 Hours in Paris. I say this to explain there was a bit of bias and a whole lot of really high expectations going into reading this new rom com. While I can’t say that I loooved 24 Hours in Paris, I can say that it was funny, entertaining, and enjoyable.

Here’s the book’s description:
All bets are off in the City of Light . . . where life and love can change in less than a day
After calling off her engagement, Mira escapes on an all-expense paid business trip to Paris. Despite the delicious food and flowing wine, she can’t forget the ache of leaving her fiancé behind or the fact that she’s just blown up her personal life. And messing up simply isn’t Mira.
She’s used to being in control. Meticulously planning. But now she’s at the mercy of the travel gods, and they are not acting in her favor. Subways are missed. Trains don’t run. Flights are overbooked. And by the time she arrives at the airport to go home, there are no new flights to NYC until the next day. The worst part? She’s now stuck in Paris for twenty-four hours with her arrogant and insufferable co-worker Jake whose constant flirting and annoying optimism is more than she can handle.
But as they spend the next twenty-four hours in Paris, exploring the city in all its beauty, Mira realizes that she and Jake have more in common than they thought, and he may turn out to be the best thing she discovers in the City of Love.
One thing you must know about Moondi is that she is funny. I found myself laughing throughout this story and I just love how clever Moondi is and that, by extension, her characters are whip smart too. That was probably my favourite thing about both Mira and this book. Too many rom coms these days are light on the “com” – but not Moondi’s novel. (In fact, you might even argue it’s light on the “rom”.) I wish I had noted some of the particularly humorous quotes but, alas, I was enjoying my reading experience too much to stop and write anything down or take pictures! You’ll just have to read it to see what I mean!

A few other reviewers have noted something that I think bothered me but I wasn’t able to put my finger on exactly what it was. Mira had never been to Paris and yet moved around the city extremely effectively. Would it really have been that easy for her? It’s not a small city but I can’t recall a single moment where she was even remotely lost or struggling with the city. Other than, of course, the initial hullaballoo that led her to being “stuck” in the city for an extra day. And I know a lot of people in Paris speak English but Mira didn’t seem to have many language barrier issues at all either. It just didn’t ring very true to me and must have stuck with me more than I realized.

What 24 Hours in Paris does really well is inspire strong wanderlust. My goodness, I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to travel to Paris more than when I was reading Moondi’s novel. There were a few places I recognized as I read the book (recognized based almost entirely on other books and a few movies that I’ve watched based in the city) as well as several new spots that I’d love to visit someday. This part of the story was a balm during a time where travel has been really limited.

24 Hours in Paris isn’t just a romantic comedy. Romi Moondi’s novel is also a love letter to Paris. This is a book to read if you enjoy armchair traveling and characters who are funny and smart and may or may not fall in love by the time you get to the last page.

Who wouldn't love an unexpected 24 hours in Paris? Unfortunately, I found reading this book to be a bit of a disappointment. It sounded great and like the perfect setup for an unexpected romance. However, I did not like the characters at all. Part of this may have been the writing style, which I also wasn't really a fan of. It also seemed very unbelievable to me at times. Overall, this book was a miss for me, and there are plenty of other Paris romances that are superior.

This was a very cute read that kept me hooked wanting more. I loved the fact that it was based in Paris. With the writing i literally envisioned myself being there. Its an enemies to lovers workplace romance between coworkers. The banter was very enjoyable and definitely made me laugh. Overall i really enjoyed this and recommend if you need an escape from reality !

* Based in Paris

What makes things even worse is that she is stuck in Paris with her arrogant co-worker Jake. What will happen to Mira and Jake over the course of the next 24 hours? Only time will tell!
