In a quiet Parisian café, Michael and Sherry Johnson sat across from each other, a delicate mille-feuille between them, forgotten in the magic of the moment. The scent of espresso and vanilla swirled around them, the soft strains of La Vie en Rose drifting in from the street. In that instant, they weren’t just falling in love with Paris—they were falling deeper in love with each other.
