What is Parisian Promises : a Novel about?

Paris, 1973: in the midst of a turbulent period of student unrest, political protest and terrorist threats, Monica, a naïve and idealistic American college student, arrives in Paris eager to live out her rose-colored dreams. Along with her three friends, Monica soon discovers a Paris not pictured in guidebooks or dreamy black-and-white photographs: a place both seductive and dangerous.The young women, who each dreamed of love at first sight, instead find themselves in a complex tangle of temptation, sex, love, and betrayal. In a city famed for its beauty, the friends soon lose sight of their moral compasses, and discover the seamy side of the Parisian adventure.Monica's passionate involvement with two men puts her in grave danger. Drawn to Christophe, an idealistic young aristocrat, she's also completely in the sway of Jean-Michel, a radical South American whose charisma and élan camouflage his despicable modus operandi. Her best friend Lola, who idolizes the life of Parisian courtesan La Belle Otero, seems consumed by sex and frivolity, but may also be Monica's greatest protector.Monica's Paris education, both sexual and intellectual, leads her on a perilous journey.
