“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.
About Jo Kessel
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.
