The Pairing

Więcej o książce

Theo and Kit have experienced a whirlwind of emotions: childhood best friends, crushes, lovers, and now estranged exes. Following a brutal breakup during their flight to a dream European food and wine tour, they parted ways for good. Time apart has been transformative; Theo has blossomed into a confident bartender and aspiring sommelier, while Kit, who stayed in Europe, has excelled at pastry school and now works in a top Paris restaurant. Despite their separate successes, they both feel the void left by their past. As the unused voucher for their European tour nears expiration, they each decide to take the trip solo. To their surprise, they find themselves on the same tour bus, forced to spend three weeks together amidst the beautiful landscapes and culinary delights of France, Spain, and Italy. They assure themselves that their feelings are in the past, but when Theo proposes a wager to see who can seduce their attractive Italian tour guide first, Kit eagerly accepts. This leads to a full-blown competition of European hookups. Yet, as they indulge in fleeting encounters, they realize that sometimes a taste of everything only intensifies the longing for what they once shared.
