We meet Carys, a school teacher in a little close nit village living with her best friend a year after she is involved in a car accident which left her in a coma.

She wakes up to news her best friend is in a serious relationship and everyone around her seems to have their life in order where she can't help suffering from PTSD following the accident and she isn't really truely that happy.

She decides she needs to make a change, and what better way than to run a cosy cafe in Paris from Sept-Dec.

Mat is a journalist working for a local free newspaper with the boss from hell due to deadlines and literally no budget.

Mat used to want to write songs, but after his highly successful father destroys his confidence as a teenager, he puts a stop to writing music, but he does write anonymous food reviews for local eateries in Paris.

He and Carys meet each other in a park and instantly hit it off and agree just like the film you've got mail they will keep work and personal life separate, of course Mat is recommended the cafe Carys is running and he ends up trying a sandwich from a  college and absolutely loving it and needs to see this cafe for himself.

After a national newspaper wants Mat to use his hidden identity to cover the usual food critic, he used the cafe as his review piece and rated it 1 star.

I adore these 2 as the main characters, and the side characters are just as great. 

If you want, you've got mail vibes set in Paris at Christmas. This is the cosy book for you.
