The film was shot on location in Italy, France and England. [2] Shortly before its premiere, Cheryl Ladd expressed her delight in Romance on the Orient Express, because the film, due to its time span of 10 years, allowed her to play two different characters. [3] Awards and nominations [ edit ] Year The whole concept of finding love on the intriguing Orient Express caught me from the very start and this installment delivers more of the same. I've noticed one common character--a mysterious man by the name of Nicholas, whose pipe smells differently for different people. One of the criminal mysteries solved by Randall Garrett's Alternative History detective Lord Darcy takes place on a luxurious cross-Europe train manifestly modeled on the Orient Express, though in this Alterative History setting its final destination is Naples rather than Istanbul. This series has been fun. I definitely recommend it. The next two books will be released soon and I can't wait to dive into them as well. The four authors who are writing them are all authors that I love, so that adds to my excitement to read the rest of the series. They can be read as stand alone books. I did like the sneak peek for the third book that was at the end of this book. I can't wait to read it. It's going to weave in characters from the previous book and this book. Yay! But, as I say that, I'm pretty sure you'll be able to read it as a stand alone as well.

In Conclusion: Romance on the Orient Express is fun to riff with loved ones and I can easily watch two hours of Cheryl Ladd wandering around pretty European locations in various outfits. Even if she is being pursued by a serial killer/ love interest. Videos As the journey continues, the passengers become involved in a dangerous web of intrigue and mystery. The story involves love, betrayal, and murder. The plot takes a lot of exciting twists and turns, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats. The characters go through a lot of personal growth, and watching them evolve is a delight. On 15 May 2007 broadcast of Jeopardy!, the shows theme music "Think" was played by a person on the train's piano, since the Final Jeopardy clue was about the Orient Express. The book is sweet, proper and chaste. But there isn't much depth. Cute little stories that together don't show growth, change or a romance blooming. It is a perfectly good read but not memorable. A couple of things bothered me. I don't mind the occasional endearment in French but there were more French words and phrases than the norm. They were correct and properly used, but if the book is set in France, but is told in English, why isn't it all in English. I suppose the author wants to give the feel of France but it bugged me. I also didn't like that the mysterious Nicholas was never explained. Wrong Train to Paris by Jennifer Moore is a wonderful historical fiction romance that is the second book in the amazing series: Romance on the Orient Express.Not only is the setting enchanting, but the main characters, Freya and Erich are as well. The mystery behind Erich when Freya sees him for the first time, or several times. She wants to be daring but she is still a lady traveling alone. But those smiles across the room, sharing a few stolen glimpses now and then, as well as his kindnesses from afar...happy sigh.

She is rich and pampered, he's wearing worn clothing and shabby shoes. How could they possibly have anything in common?

Rate And Review

I was very impressed with the correct use of French and the French sentence structure in English. I speak French and it was very well done. Julia Weston is a young woman under her father's thumb she's out to prove she's a capable and responsible woman able to do things without a chaperone.

Now, she loves to share bits of history that might otherwise be forgotten. Whether in Regency England, the French Revolution, or Colonial America, her romance novels are much like life is supposed to be: full of adventure. I think my favorite part of this book is that Ms. Johnson wrote this in such a way to make me truly believe that Freya and Erich could not live without music. And I believed that Freya was immensely gifted. I am no great musician by any stretch of the imagination but I have attended musical and dance performances where a gift like that was obvious to the audience. And the descriptions in the book were completely believable. Simms, Demetrius (17 October 2022). "A Luxurious New Orient Express Train Will Debut in 2025—Here's a Look Inside". Robb Report . Retrieved 24 November 2022. I was pleased to see Easter Eggs from the other books in this series as well as from the author's other stories. This was a perfect ending to this beautiful series, though I would hope for it not to end. There is just something magical about the Orient Express and the Paris Exposition. The Orient Express appeared as a technologically advanced (for its time) train in the book Behemoth, by Scott Westerfeld.I have read other books by this author and each one is refreshingly different from the last. The stories find new ways to surprise me and draw me in. Even the characters outside of Freya and Erich have life and find ways to endear me to them or in the case of one character, make me want to slap them. While it is easy to figure out the "main" mystery, it doesn't giveaway everything until the end. There are still aspects that we figure out with Freya. Francesca Street (2 July 2022).
