In this novel by Christine Sneed, a struggling artist named Jayne is asked by an older man and art gallery owner if she would like to move to Paris to work there and live with him. They have a romantic relationship. He says he wants her to have the time and space to realize her potential as an artist. He can see she is barely making it financially in Manhattan. She agrees to this idea. This story is about a man using a woman and vice versa. I liked the description of Paris. I thought the relationship between Jayne and Laurent was not fleshed out as well as it could have been. I really didn't get a feel for why the two lovers behaved the way they did.
