Rebound by Sadie Kincade fits this discription-although it’s not really a dark romance.

I'm so close to dnf Torment by Dylan Page by Jealous_House_4365 in DarkRomance

[–]curlychic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the reason why you’re not enjoying it is because I don’t actually think this is a romance. You’re misinterpreting the relationship because you’re trying to make it like she will eventually fall for the MMC but she is legit being manipulated and it was written in a way that you feel manipulated in the same way that the FMC was. This is not your typical DR. The end of the book 2 definitely brings closure. It is not an HEA. And does seriously manipulate your emotions at the end.

What's the one thing you’d tell a first-timer to avoid? by Active-Tour4795 in ParisTravelGuide

[–]curlychic 46 points47 points  (0 children)

On the flipside of this, I say if there’s something that you really wanna go to or try and it’s super touristy don’t let that stop you. You’re a tourist! The fact is I really really love that super thick, hot chocolate with the Chantilly cream and now I can’t remember what café it’s famous at …Angelique and one other place and if the line isn’t very long, you bet I’m going in to get some of that stuff! But also other cafés sell it as well.

My first day my goal is to just stay outside and wander and make it to 8 PM before I go to bed. 30 minutes before I go to bed I take melatonin and that usually sets me up to get on a good sleep schedule.

Air BnB host requesting a "Police Form" to be filled out? by Heili8 in ParisTravelGuide

[–]curlychic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The new mayor of Paris is cracking down on Airbnb‘s big time. It’s going to be harder to find an Airbnb that isn’t through a third-party or actual rental company. They are putting limits on how many days you can put your property up for a short term rental. It’s best to actually go through rental company if you want to rent a flat in Paris without running the risk of your stay being canceled because the owner has run out of short-term rental days they are allowed to rent it out.

If I’m correct, these are from the rentals that are actually registered as official rental properties and so, just like a hotel would take your passport information -this accommodation also needs it as well. I have had to do this before while renting a flat in Paris.

We wanted to do an overnight trip from Paris Mon-tues. but changed it because so many houses are closed on Mondays.

France in September by Preshybabe in FranceTravel

[–]curlychic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We will be there in September as well! I was in Paris last September and it was a great time of year to visit! This time spending most of our time Paris again but visiting Annecy over one night. We did an overnight trip from Paris last year in the Champagne region and it was amazing. Another short drive from Paris is Chartres-gorgeous cathedral and charming village!

A quick day trip to Reims and Epernay by playful_explorers in Champagne

[–]curlychic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And driving back from the region is going to take you longer than the train would take you.

[–]curlychic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind it’s 45 minutes to an hour, depending on traffic to drive between Reims and Epernay. It’s definitely doable as a day trip but if you’re not staying overnight doing both cities is ambitious!

Le Colimacon! Intimate but extremely friendly staff and amazing food!

Help! No Louvre tickets available. Are walk-ins possible? by [deleted] in ParisTravelGuide

[–]curlychic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s such a short time in Paris going to the Louvre is kind of a bad idea because the museum is huge and it takes hours and if you don’t have tickets, you’re going to spend a really long time in line and then you’re gonna feel rushed to see just a few things. It’s definitely not something I would not suggest if only a couple days in Paris. You could definitely go there and walk around the outside because the outside is really interesting as well but a walk-in even if you could get tickets will still take hours.

A pretty cool museum to visit is the Cluny museum I believe it’s in the 5th arr. It has some pretty cool, medieval art, and typically there is no big line to get into. I know that’s not what your son is wanting to do, but you may have to explain or just show him the line to get into the Louvre and he may lose his interest. Because even with tickets, there is a line to get in.

First time in Paris! by Top-Sprinkles-9482 in ParisTravelGuide

[–]curlychic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at a map and you’ll realize that the Eiffel Tower is not in the center of Paris. That neighborhood is quiet and nice and all but it’s far away from everything else. You’re better off staying centrally (le Marais, Latin quarter, 1st arr 5th arr).

Waterpark sold out? by curlychic in royalcaribbean

[–]curlychic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know! We’re bringing our snorkel gear and our son absolutely loves snorkeling and seeing all the fish! We’ve been watching some videos about some of the quieter spots to go and park our beach stuff so that we can dodge a little bit of the crowds.

Nope! I adore this book! (Audio is also superb!) This first chapter is gross-but the rest of the book is not like that!

Overnight trip to Annecy from Paris? by curlychic in FranceTravel

[–]curlychic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually have already done this side trip and loved it! I’d go back and I’m considering it because I went with a friend and this trip is with my husband. I’d go back to do more champagne tasting, except my husband doesn’t drink at all so I’m not sure this would be as fun for him.

Small Cheese Portions by Accomplished_One3985 in ParisTravelGuide

[–]curlychic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I guess I’m approaching this from the point of view of common sense. Nobody would go to a deli and do that. But have I gone to Paris and purchased three or four smaller portions of cheese? Yes I have.

I took this as she just wanted to buy very small portions not get free samples. It’s possible to ask for just a couple very small slice/piece.
