Five Days in Paris

Peter Haskell is a successful pharmaceutical executive who has sacrificed personal happiness for career stability and family expectations. Olivia Thatcher is the neglected wife of a prominent United States senator, feeling isolated inside a hollow political marriage. A chance bomb threat evacuation brings them together at the Hotel Ritz in Paris. Over five unexpected days in the French capital, their shared confidences turn into a deep connection that forces both to reconsider their futures upon returning home.
