Dinner for One

One woman's unforgettable journey rebuilding her life after heartbreak by cooking dinner for herself in her Montmartre kitchen. 

When Sutanya Dacres married her French boyfriend and moved to Paris at twenty-seven, she was living out her very own Nora Ephron romantic comedy. But when her marriage abruptly ended, the fairy tale came crashing down. 

Reeling from her divorce and the cracked facade of her picture-perfect expat life, Sutanya grew determined to mend her broken heart. She began by cooking dinner for one. Along the way, she builds Parisienne friendships, starts dating and examines what it means to be a Black American woman in Paris—all while adopting the French principle of pleasure, especially when it comes to food. 

Brimming with charm and humor, Sutanya's story takes readers on an adventure through love, loss and finding where you truly belong, even when it doesn't look quite how you expected.
