[amazon_link id=”B00T39BL0M” target=”_blank” ][/amazon_link]’Catch Me If You Cannes (Part 1) is the first of a four part book series by Lisa Dickenson.

Jess has decided it’s time to get out of her comfort zone and live a little. So when her best friend Bryony, a journalist on a gossip magazine, is sent to cover the Cannes Film Festival, Jess decides to seize the day and go along for the ride. Two weeks of glitz, glamour and exclusive entry into celeb-filled parties is just the kind of adventure Jess needs.

Reality soon bites though when Jess and Bryony find they’re staying in a dingy hotel far away from all the action and Bryony’s expenses budget barely covers a glass of local wine. Undeterred, the two women are determined to live like the elite and enjoy one fancy night out to begin their holiday. So what if they have to tell a few white lies along the way? It’s just this once. No harm done… right?

Part 1 is a great start to Lisa’s new series and it sets the scene perfectly, set against the glamorous backdrop of Cannes, making the story suitably luxurious and exciting as our two leading ladies go on a trip of a lifetime to the Cannes Film Festival.

The stars of the story are life long best friends Jess and Bryony, who met in secondary school and have stayed close ever since. Bryony is a journalist for ‘Sleb’ magazine and longs to be taken seriously as a writer, whilst Jess runs a cafe back in their own town.

Jess is delighted to be accompanying her best friend on the press trip and revels in seeing celebrities and cannot hide her excitement, no matter how many times Bryony has to remind her.

The two friends are wonderful characters and it’s not only Cannes that sparkles in this story, Jess and Bryony’s banter and situations make for delicious reading as the two leading ladies attempt to blend into the glamorous location even though their bank accounts are taking a battering. Bryony is sharp, outspoken and always looking out for story whereas Jess is quieter, gentler and adapts to the attitude of her heroine, Marilyn Monroe

Filled with witty one liners and a cast of delicious characters plus handsome Leo, who has caught Jess’s eye, Part 1 of ‘Catch Me If You Cannes’ is off to a fabulous start.
