Book Description

Publication Date: August 1, 2003

In the dead of winter, a young man and woman struggle to understand their relationship in Munich's expatriate community. Both Karl Schwarz, the former American Olympic skier, and Angelique Flaubert, the auburn-haired Belgian beauty, must overcome outside influences that conspire to keep them apart. They are united by proximity as tour guides for a German company traveling in Europe, while they feed their true passion-he as a floundering writer and she as an aspiring painter. When Karl is forced to fly home to Minnesota to attend his favorite uncle's funeral, he sets into motion a cataclysmic sequence of events that compels him to question everything in his life. As Karl leaves Angelique, she returns to Brussels to confront a family that has arranged her marriage to a man she despises. Find out if they both return to Germany to find true love. . .

I have spent some time in Europe and this book wanted me to go to Munich to become a writer. The life of a tour guide and a starving author sounds pretty good right now. This book could be used as a text in any college in America. There are so many layers I had to read it a few times to find all of them. Click and buy this book and then pass it on to your mother, your sister, your brother, your grandparents. Hand it to anyone who would like Catcher in the Rye. ..it's that good.
