Weak
at the Knees
By:

“We
got so busy living life that we forgot to live our dreams.”
Danni
Lewis has been playing it safe for twenty-six years, but her
sheltered existence is making her feel old ahead of time. When a
sudden death plunges her into a spiral of grief, she throws caution
to the wind and runs away to France in search of a new beginning.
The
moment ski instructor Olivier du Pape enters her shattered world she
falls hard, in more ways than one.
Their
mutual desire is as powerful and seductive as the mountains around
them. His dark gypsy looks and piercing blue eyes are irresistible.
Only
she must resist, because he has a wife – and she’d made a pact to
never get involved with a married man.
But
how do you choose between keeping your word and being true to your
soul?
Weak
at the Knees is Jo’s debut novel in the new adult, contemporary
romance genre – a story about love, loss and relationships, set
between London and the heart of the French Alps.

Info
Jo
Kessel is a journalist, working for the BBC and reporting and
presenting for ITV on holiday, consumer and current affairs programs.
She writes for several national newspapers in the UK including the
Daily Mail, the Telegraph, the Guardian and the Express and was the
anonymous author of the Independent’s hit column: Diary of a
Primary School Mum.
When
Jo was ten years old she wrote a short story about losing a loved
one. Her mother and big sister were so moved by the tale that it made
them cry. Having reduced them to tears she vowed that the next time
she wrote a story it would make them smile instead. Happily she
succeeded and with this success grew an addiction for wanting to
reach out and touch people with words. Jo lives in London with her
husband and three children. She loves traveling and since becoming a
mother anything even remotely sad makes her cry. She’s a sucker for
a good romance and tearjerker movies are the worst. She’s that
woman in the cinema, struggling to muffle audible wails as everyone
else turns round to stare.
