About this ebook
Janie is still not sure if she should pack up her life and go with Tomas to Paris. She feels that her life is passing her by at too fast a pace and this scares her. Then on his last night with her before he leaves to return home to Paris, they make love and this changes everything.
Then when she wakes up next morning Tomas has gone without saying a final goodbye. This confuses Janie until she finds his note and also a gift he has left for her.
A while later she suddenly takes ill and is concerned that she might be pregnant. Complications follow and she leaves the hospital with a stern warning from the doctor.
During the second week while she is still recovering at home she decides to return to her flat to finally pack up her goods there. She also visits her grandmother and after a bit of hitch and a bit of a tussle, her grandmother agrees to live at Leafy Lane, a place in a retirement village that Janie has purchased for her.
Janie also sees the lawyer about finalizing her dad's will and sorting out the finances. He warns her to be careful about whom she tells about the money she has inherited. On Thomas's recommendation she also buys a white dress, as he tells her he has a surprise in store for her where only white may be worn. This turns out to be the "Diner en Blanc' in Paris, but he refuses to tell Janie this.
On the way to Paris there is some drama on board the plane, but this is soon sorted.
Janie and Tomas are re-united and they quickly get ready to attend the dinner with their friends. The dinner certainly is a surprise as it takes place on the square outside the Louvre Museum, with the Eiffel Tower as a backdrop, where literally hundreds of tables are all set out....

I began my library career at the Jhb. public library, and while I worked there part time, I also completed my Library Exams with the SALA. Then I was headhunted by Ekom, as I'd specialized in information retrieval and they needed someone to obtain current information on various projects for their engineers. Later I moved to Control Data, where I learned all about storing such information on their large computers. All the while, I also taught ballet, modern and Spanish, dancing in my spare time, as I'd trained as a dance teacher while still at school. After I married I ran two dancing studios for adults, where I also began to teach yoga and passive exercises. In my youth I danced for PACT for a while, but as I was still studying at the time, -I decided to give this up, although I continued to dance in various productions at the Civic Theater in Johannesburg. -Showboat, The Merry Widow, Guys and Dolls, to name a few. As I'd also joined two writing circles previously, I'd been writing all along, - mostly short stories. But then an opportunity came up for me to include English Literature and Creative Writing in my studies, so this is when my writing career really took off, even though I never published anything until recently, when I first uploaded stories on a local SA site,then Kindle, Kobo and now finally that I've cracked the 'meat-gringer," I've loaded some new stories on to Smashwords, which I think is a really wonderful site for writers, as it forces us to confront all the issues and make certain that everything is correct..
