A French Country Escape by Jennifer Bohnet #Review

 

I am delighted to be on the tour to celebrate Jennifer Bohnet's romance, AFrench Country Escape,which was published by Boldwood Books on September 16th.

 
A fresh start in the beautiful Brittany countryside is what dreams are made of...

Buying and relocating to the Château du Cheval in rural France has fulfilled one of Peter and Ingrid Chevalier’s lifelong ambitions. Despite never being able to trace a missing link in Peter’s French ancestry he feels he has finally come home. Now they must renovate the Château to its former glory and make it pay for itself…

With money getting tight, they take the decision to sell a couple of cottages on the estate. Can the Château begin to pay for itself and be sustainable for the future?

Divorced Sasha Heath and her brother Freddie decide to sensibly invest their mother’s inheritance into property and buy the two rundown cottages on the Château’s estate. Putting the past behind them, a new life in France beckons, but will it live up to their dreams?

As they relax and settle into their new idyllic lifestyle, their new lives throw up several surprises, and all they can do is cross their fingers and hope everything will turn out well in the end.

My Thoughts

 There are plenty of characters in this story all with their own lives to follow. At the centre are Peter and Ingrid who are renovating the beautiful french Chateau du Cheval and its estate. Forced to sell two of the cottages to release funds, they find Sasha and Freddie, brother and sister, who are keen to settle in France in neighbouring houses. They all find they have a lot in common and firm friendships are forged. 

    As Sasha and Freddie settle into life in the french countryside, they find new interests and new friend. Plans for the futire are forged. Sasha decides to branch out into a new occupation. Freddie's work as a gardener goes from strength to strength but his personal life is not so lucky. Peter and Ingrid are also treated to some surprises which are family related. As ever, this feels like a gorgeous visit to France with likable characters, a family mystery to uncover and some slow burn romance.

In short: new beginnings, new friends
