Zach Mitchell and his lover Angelo Green are headed to Paris (along with their Coda friends Matt and Jared) to attend Jon and Cole’s wedding. Matt will have to face Jared’s former lover, and Angelo will have to spend an entire week with Zach’s ex-boyfriend. Between Matt’s jealousy and Angelo’s temper, Zach thinks they’ll be lucky to get through the week without one of the grooms being punched. But Zach soon realizes he should worry less about Angelo and more about himself. Facing the bittersweet memories of his past and his own guilt over breaking Jon’s heart is harder than expected, but Zach will have to find a way to leave his past behind if he’s to have any hope of the future he wants with Angelo.
Sequel to The Letter Z.
(Please note that although Paris A to Z is ostensibly about Jon and Cole’s wedding, the book really isn’t about them. It’s Zach and Angelo’s book. If you read it expecting to see a lot of Jon and Cole, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed.)

/ April 17, 2012I did finally read all the Coda novels
not the short stories yet but I will. I am pleased there was a mention of Albuquerque, NM (I live 20min south) even if it’s where Angelo’s mom . I also read Cinder and loved that too.
Marie Sexton
/ April 17, 2012Thanks Amanda! I’m so glad you enjoyed them!
Amanda
/ April 4, 2012BTW I did read what you posted I do just want to see the wedding I’m not expecting much of them (Cole and Jon)
but I am excited to check out A to Z just have to wait til I get paid
Marie Sexton
/ April 5, 2012No worries. I remember those broke college days all too well.
Amanda
/ April 4, 2012Hello Marie,
I just got done with Strawberries for Dessert (my first one of yours) I loved it! Only since I am totally in love with Cole and Jon being together I want to read this one, though I suppose I better stick a bit more with the series… I’ll have to wait until I get more money though… being a college student even e-books take up my money especially when I found just found a terrific author (yes you
)
~Amanda
Marie Sexton
/ April 5, 2012Thanks Amanda! I really hope you enjoy the rest of the series as well.
Jeff Ellison
/ March 15, 2012Hi Marie,
I just finished Promises last week–absolutely loved it. Something about your writing style–so perfect. I really grew to like these characters–actually found myself crying once or twice. So easy to read, yet a profound depth to the characters.
So I just started A to Z, but as I’m looking at the series, only a few are in paperback–I hate to admit that I don’t have a kindle, and don’t really plan on getting one anytime soon since I have a huge stack of books waiting to be read–how can I get a hard copy/paperback of these other books? Are they coming out soon–please don’t make me buy a kindle….lol! Keep up the good work…..you are the next Augusten Burroughs with a modern day Tales of the City series (definitely someone will see that and put them all to a film series/cable network series–crazy not to).
Marie Sexton
/ March 15, 2012Thanks Jeff! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the books!
Some of the series is only available in ebook at this time because they’re novellas (not full novel length). At some point, I hope The Letter Z and Paris A to Z will be printed together in one volume, but at this point, they’re only available as ebooks. You can get them in pdf, which would still mean reading them on your computer, but you at least wouldn’t have to buy a Kindle.
For what it’s worth, you can easily skip from A to Z to Strawberries, and then read TLZ and Paris afterward.
Anyway, hope that helps. I hope you enjoy the rest of the series. And as far as a them becoming a TV series? Man, I sure wouldn’t mind!
Thanks again1

/ June 24, 2011The tears are making tracks through my bronzer LOL! I started a re-re-re-re-read of the boyz of Coda this week and just finished the scene in Paris A to Z where Jon has just left after talking with Zach and Angelo (((Angelo))) is comforting Zach and…gah!
I just had to leave you a message. These books are so meaningful to me, Marie. I laugh and cry through each and every one. And love Angelo more, if that is even possible

Marie Sexton
/ June 24, 2011Thanks Bubz! I’m glad the stories continue to work.
Angela Lum
/ June 7, 2011Hi Marie… I have just finished Paris A to Z and I have to say that it was wonderful… I love it as i love all your books… It would be great if you decide to writte another book about Cole and Jon, i looooove Cole. I almost cry when i read the last messege from Cole to Jared in SfD… i think Cole will be a great father, and he really deserves a chanche to have a son, a complete family…
Marie Sexton
/ June 7, 2011Thanks Angela! I’m glad you liked it. One of these days, I may get back to Jon and Cole.
Linda
/ May 6, 2011Hi Marie,
I just read your book and I love it.
I love all the characters but Cole and Jon are my favorite couple. I hope to read more of them soon
gr. Linda
Marie Sexton
/ May 6, 2011Thanks so much Linda!
Bubz
/ April 6, 2011He has! And I will just say this…I loved the love scenes. I really like the smutty (and I mean that in the best way possible) Zach, and Angelo. Loved the voyeur stuff and I felt your love scenes were more explicit/descriptive…whatever word works
You can’t get too explicit for me. Can’t speak for others. I have embraced my inner perv.
You didn’t comment on future Ang/Zach…LOL!
Goodnight, Marie, and congrats.

/ April 6, 2011*sob*
I agree with Vikki, words fail me. Was word-perfect for me. I laughed, I cried. I love each and every one of those boyz so much. I will begin re-read tomorrow. Forgot how much I love Cole
Please tell me that this means there will be more Ang/Zach!
(((Angelo)))

Marie Sexton
/ April 6, 2011So glad you liked it! I love how much Angelo has grown.
Divalcious
/ April 6, 2011Downloaded the book at like 12 am last night because I HAD to have it, and finished it this afternoon. It was soooo good! I cringed a bit in the beginning with the whole Zachary voyeur thing (for some reason it doesn’t normally bother me but because Zachary and Angelo feel like “friends”, I was a bit weirder out). I laughed and was a bit teary eyed. Can’t wait for the next one!
Marie Sexton
/ April 6, 2011Thanks Diva! Glad you liked it!
Vikki
/ April 6, 2011I have just finished the book, After sitting here for a couple of hours (I could NOT and WOULD not put it down haha) and, I actually have no words that can explain how utterly amazing it was. Nothing I say will do it any justice.
I’ve laughed out loud! I’ve cried! I’ve done both at the same time!!
An amazing book that was SO worth that wait.
I still can’t figure out who I love the most…I think “Matt” then it’s “No it’s Angelo” then I’m all “Nope it’s Jared, No wait, Zach, NOOOOO it’s Cole AAAARGH Jonathan” I just cannot choose!!
I do Kinda love George too though, I can’t leave him out!! Lol.
I LOVED the Cole/Angelo friendship too, that was just…perfect!!!
Amazing, utterly amazing!!
Vikki xx
Marie Sexton
/ April 6, 2011Thanks Vikki! I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I love all the boys, and when I put them all together, it was way too much fun!!
Bubz
/ April 6, 2011KINDLE info:
Forgive me if not my place to post this but for the person asking about Kindle file from Amazon, if you purchase your ebook from Dreamspinner press, you receive PDF, prc, lit, ebpub formats (so great to get all formats). You can simply email the PRC file to your Kindle and voila! The PDF will work on Kindle but may be funky–the PRC works great on Kindle.

Marie Sexton
/ April 6, 2011Thanks Bubz! Not out of place. Jump in anytime!
Bubz
/ April 6, 2011(((Marie)))
Happy release day!
Laura and I just bought our books and have reminded other friends to buy theirs! I have no time to read until tonight, so now I am both happy and anxious

Bubz
Marie Sexton
/ April 6, 2011Thanks Bubz! Hope you and Laura enjoy it!
Lauren
/ April 6, 2011Loved it! Angelo + Cole = Let the hilarity begin.
Marie Sexton
/ April 6, 2011Thanks Lauren! Yes, Cole and Angelo have way too much fun together, and when poor Matt is there as the straight man (no pun intended), it’s hard to hold them back.
Glad you liked it.
Kate
/ April 6, 2011Will Paris A to Z also be available for the Kindle on Amazon. Have been checked already today but can´t seem to find it?
Marie Sexton
/ April 6, 2011Kate, it definitely will be eventually, but sometimes it takes a couple of day for them to appear. It all has to do with Amazon’s conversion schedule or some such thing. But it will be there!
Thanks!
Laura
/ April 5, 2011I’ve reread Promises, A to Z and the Letter Z in about a day and a half. Now I just have to read Strawberries to be ready. May have to stay up all night.
Can’t wait for tomorrow!
Marie Sexton
/ April 5, 2011I’m glad you’re so excited! Hope you enjoy it!
Laura
/ April 6, 2011You definitely did not disappoint! Bought it this morning and flew through it. I love all your characters!
Marie Sexton
/ April 6, 2011Thanks Laura! I’m so glad you liked it!
UKSandy
/ April 5, 2011Whooooo Hooooooo Marie – I just can’t wait for tomorrow!!!
Marie Sexton
/ April 5, 2011Haha! I’m so glad you all are excited!!
Bubz
/ April 4, 2011Well then, you heard it here first! LOL
would be cool if Ang helped them find a baby to love!
Take care,
Bubz
Bubz
/ April 4, 2011Ok, really not trying to stalk you with so many posts today but I just started an “emergency re-read” of “A to Z” to get myself mentally prepared for Wednesday, and I remembered a question I’ve meant to ask you several times:
When Ruby tells Ang “he is a bringer of life” clearly she means she brings life to Zach, but I’ve wondered if it also means Ang might have something to do with helping Cole become a father…helping him and Jon get a baby or something(?)
xxx
Bubz
Marie Sexton
/ April 4, 2011Don’t worry about stalking! Haha! I love getting comments on my site!
That’s a great question. I have to admit I was not thinking that far ahead when I wrote A to Z, but it’s an interesting idea….
Lisa
/ April 4, 2011Hey Marie, I just saw your post over on It’s Raining Men! I posted there, but didn’t know if you’d see it as they have a lot going on there. I can’t wait for Paris A to Z. Is it Wednesday yet?
I completely agree with your post on IRM. I read for exactly the reasons you mention. Escape from reality-and it’s so important. Keeps me sane! And while I never think of my friends, erm, you know….if I see a good looking guy I do wonder exactly what Ethan wonders! Have a great release week!
Marie Sexton
/ April 4, 2011Thanks Lisa! Glad you liked the post, and also glad you’re excited about Paris. I can’t believe the release is only two days away now! Yikes!
Bubz
/ April 4, 2011Gah! That is great! (((marie’s husband)))!
on Wed.!
If I could I would send u champagne
I love Cole nearly as much as Ang…. I know you will have a great release day!
Xxx
Bubz
Bubz
/ April 4, 2011Lol no disappointment yet
Do you do anything to celebrate on release day?
Marie Sexton
/ April 4, 2011Nothing in particular. My husband often buys me flowers on release day. When A to Z was released, he brought me flowers and a card. The card was signed not only by him, but also by Matt, Jared, Zach and Angelo. Matt said, “You go girl!” Zach and Jared both wrote nice little thank you messages, and Angelo wrote, “What the fuck ever!” It was great! I have the card hanging on my office wall. For Strawberries for Dessert, he of course brought me a bottle of Arbor Mist. But other than that, I don’t necessarily celebrate. Mostly I sit around being neurotic and doing my best to not look at reviews.
Bubz
/ April 4, 2011(((Marie))) !
So excited…looking forward to Wednedsay and “Paris A to Z.” It was great to read “Putting out Fires” while I waited. Such a cute story
Hope you are well. I am so anxious for more Angelo and the boyz!.
(((Angelo))) LOL!
xxx Bubz
Marie Sexton
/ April 4, 2011Haha! Thanks Bubz! I’m glad you’re excited, and really hope you’re not disappointed when it’s over.
Laura
/ April 4, 2011Marie, you never disappoint Bubz and I!!!
Marie Sexton
/ April 4, 2011LOL. I’ll do my best not to.
I can’t believe the release is only two days away. I feel like I’ve been waiting on this one forever.
nita
/ March 12, 2011Marie- Can I just say I loved A-Z and The Letter Z (and of course Promises) I’m reading all of these again (can’t help myself) you are a talented writer and having never been to Paris I will live vicarously in the journey of Zach & Angelo, & Matt & Jared on their journey of the city of lights…. is it April yet??
Marie Sexton
/ March 14, 2011Nita, sorry for my delay in replying. Somehow your comment was tagged as spam, so I didn’t see it until now.
Anyway, thanks very much for your comment! Glad you’re enjoying them. April 6 isn’t too terribly far away!
Divalcious
/ March 8, 2011Seriously cannot wait and that cover is beautiful…
Marie Sexton
/ March 8, 2011Thanks! I’m getting excited!!
Theresa
/ March 7, 2011I was already looking forward to this but now seeing the cover and reading the blurb I’m ready to buy today if possible. Will have to wait out the month with everyone else though. So excited to see all the couples together! They are some of my favs!
Marie Sexton
/ March 7, 2011Thanks Theresa! Hope it doesn’t disappoint!
Marie Sexton
/ March 6, 2011I’m so glad you all are excited about this one! I had so much fun with it!

Hi Angelo! *waves*
Marie Sexton
/ March 6, 2011Thanks!
Bubz
/ December 21, 2010LOL, I got the general picture
congrats on house/move, I am sure you are swamped but how fun. They day Angelo replied, I was in the middle of preparing for our big holiday party/dinner, and was super-grumpy, so hearing from him made my day (((Angelo))). Happy Holidays, Marie 
bubz
Bubz
/ December 19, 2010Hey Marie…again…can’t tell you how much I look forward to this book. Also can’t wait for the short story on Valentine’s Day. I read “One More Soldier” over Thanksgiving and pretty much came undone LOL! My bestie is reading your stuff now (think she has posted on this site)–she read it the next night and was a mess!
At any rate, happy holidays to you, and (((Angelo))) a hug for Angelo
Bubz
Angelo
/ December 19, 2010Marie’s buried under a pile of unpacked boxes (she just moved to a new house), but she’s glad to hear you’re excited about Paris. Happy holidays to you, too!
Marie Sexton
/ December 21, 2010What Angelo should have said is, I’m buried under a pile of packed boxes that are waiting to be unpacked. I guess he’s as flustered by the move as I am!
