Loved welcoming Kate Clayborn to Books Are Chic to celebrate her latest romance, The Paris Match. Naturally, we had to talk about the City of Light and all the magic and romance it holds.

This story delivers all the emotions—each character is layered and complex, making the relationships feel deeply real and relatable. I’m always drawn to romances that feel like they could be happening to people you actually know, and this one absolutely nails that.

Kate and I chatted about her writing process, the research behind the story, and, of course, our shared love of romance as a genre.

It’s the perfect spring break read and I’m already counting down to whatever she writes next.
