The Paradise Guest House by Ellen Sussman

3.0

Jamie is an American adventure tour guide. On a scouting trip to Bali she is in a bar that is bombed by terrorists and her boyfriend dies. Gabe is an ex-pat who helps her rescue people in the building and rescues her after she is injured. A year later, Jamie is back for a memorial. She stays at the Paradise Guest House whose owner lost his wife and unborn child in the bombing. And there is a young street boy with a dog who helps Jamie track down Gabe to see if there is osmething between them. The bombing scenes were very realistic. Jamies, the boy, and the house oenwer were all likeable characters.
