Summary

It’s fair to say that Flick has had a terrible year. Her beloved father died, then, just hours after her wedding ceremony, her husband ran out on her. Fed up with her daughter living like a hermit, Brenda decides to drag Flick off to France to stay in a chateau. What could be better than an idyllic escape?

But when they arrive, Flick discovers the chateau is all but abandoned. The only upside of her French escape is the handsome and mysterious neighbour, Nate. Nate loves his life living in the cottage on the grounds of the abandoned chateau, but that is about to be put in jeopardy....

Can Nate and Flick learn to come to terms with the past and find love again?

Enjoyed the story but the narration was dire it was devoid of any performance just read text

Enjoyable escapism

I enjoyed the theme of this book BUT it was totally spoilt for me by the narration. The reader spoke far far too quickly without even a pause between chapters it was exhausting listening to her

modern Barbara Cartland

I thought that it would be an amusing tale of locating to France. instead a weak story of two people meeting with a predictable story supported by a few local characters who don't get developed. nothing really about adjusting to French life nor work on the chateau
