La Vie, According to Rose Summary

La Vie, According to Rose: A Novel by Lauren Parvizi

A heartfelt novel about self-discovery, grief, and a once-in-a-lifetime chance to start over. Rose Zadeh pleases everyone, except herself. Memories of her late Iranian-immigrant father, who valued hard work and family, keep Rose in a dead-end job as a Silicon Valley copywriter, and tethered to her guilt-trippy mom and needy sisters. As much as it would disappoint her father, Rose needs an escape. Voila! A mandated vacation gives her the chance. Three weeks on a long-dreamed-of trip to the City of Light. Instead of landing in a Parisian fairy tale, Rose falls under the spell of a charming and possibly dangerous expat and encounters an old family friend keeping a surprising secret. With the aid of a French self-help guru, Rose really believes she's blossoming. Until an unwelcome reminder of home proves that finding herself will require more than a change of scenery. From Paris's cobblestone streets to Provence's sun-soaked hills, Rose embarks on a journey of adventure, betrayals, and even amour. For the first time, the directions she follows are up to her.
