Grab your passport for the first in the European Escapes series 🥐🥖🥐🥖No home. No job. No boyfriend.
When Lia loses her job straight after a break-up, she
escapes to the Molins’ family-run boulangerie in Toulouse – the place she was
last happy, far away from her cheating ex.
Sworn off men, she isn’t prepared for the spark she feels
for charming cheesemaker Jean-Luc, nor for things heating up at the family’s
country home in Gascony when handsome, self-assured vineyard-owner Théo asks
her out.
Torn between the two and her connections to the Molins
family, Lia has some tough decisions to make.
Lia loves being back in France with the people she cares
about, helping in the boulangerie. On discovering it is under threat of
closure, she is devastated and resolves to do everything in her power to help
it stay open.
Will she succeed? And will she be able to choose between the
two handsome Frenchmen and live her happily ever after?
For fans of Gillian Harvey, Rebecca Raisin, Jo Thomas and
Veronica Henry.
My Thoughts
At a difficult time in her life, Lia finds herself back in Toulouse, staying with the French family she met whilst a teenager on a French exchange holiday as part of her language studies. She finds the family to be as welcoming and caring as she remember them and feels part of the family, almost from the start. The family are well known in the community and Lia finds herself considering where she wants to live in the future.
All does not go smoothly for the family and Lia becomes involved in their problems. She is determined to help as far as she can, which shows her empathy and kind nature. There is a slow burn romance in the story and decisions have to be made about several young Frenchmen and their intentions. With its setting in rural France, this is a lovely read, perfect if you fancy escaping to Trance during these cold winter months.
In short: family, friends, all things french
