Finding Paris

Me? A love addict? A sex and love addict? ItÕs not possible. It canÕt be. I canÕt be. ItÕs a completely preposterous idea. Okay, so I like to write the odd love poem. Hey, IÕm a hopeless romantic. I express myself through words. They just happen to rhyme. Yes, itÕs true IÕve been a little (okayÑa lot) unlucky in love. But I havenÕt met the ÔrightÕ (appropriate and available) guy yet. Or maybe my poems arenÕt that good. Surely that doesnÕt make me an addict?! A sex and love addict?! I mean, cÕmon, itÕs completely absurd! After yet another failed relationship, Hedley Galt, fresh from tossing her ex-boyfriendÕs phone in the garden, booked a trip to Paris with the dream of finding true love once and for all, or at the very least a gorgeous Frenchman whom she could have a fling with. Instead Hedley found herself with no luggage, a broken heart and the uncomfortable realisation that all her failed relationships had one thing in commonÑher. Feeling lost and alone in le cite d'amour, a chance encounter on the Champs-Elysees leads Hedley to ponder the shocking possibility that maybe jumping into bed with another man isnÕt the answer to her relationship problems, but a (gulp) twelve-step program for sex and love addiction is. Finding Paris is the first part of The Paris Trilogy based on the real-life adventures of Hedley Galt as she attempts to unravel the truth about sex, love and intimate relationships. Be prepared to laugh, cry and occasionally cringe as this sassy Sydney woman shares her incredibly honest and often hilarious warts ÔnÕ all tale of how she goes to Paris in search of love and discovers a lot more than what she bargained for. Warning! This is an unusual love storyÉ
