Review: The Frenchman - Book #1 Jet-Setters and Jeopardy Series - Lesley Young - July 2015

When Fleur Smithers, a girl from the States and someone who had grown up living a pretty sheltered life decided to head to France to find her biological mother , she never expected that she would turn out to be the daughter of a Police Inspector and not only that her mother's nickname is Marie the Mercernary , as she is one of the toughest cops around. Out one night with her best friend Jess, who has come to accompany her from the States, Fleur meets a table of French Rugby Players and one in particular catches her eyes - Louis Messette. One thing leads to another and they eventually almost have sex , until he discovers she still belongs to the V-club and leaves. She is hurt and dejected, until she discovers that he is in fact a playboy and that his family cannot be trusted as the Messette's are part of the biggest drug family in France and her mother is hunting them down. It seems though that when the heart wants something, then it goes straight for it and the pair start meeting secretly. What will happen though when Marie finds out about it and then the members of the Messette family are arrested ? Can Fleur choose both sides or will she have to choose between her head or her heart ? Family or the one she loves ? Also we find out the truth of Fleur's biological father in The Frenchman and why now after 23 years it was safe for Marie to contact her daughter ?

Another amazing story and now I look forward to reading more from this author and if you enjoyed The Frenchman, then also check out Book #2 The Australian - which has also been reviewed on The Phantom Paragrapher.
