Review:Incredibly suspenseful. One of the the most spellbinding, can't put it down books I've read in a very long time. Just when you think all's well...wham!!!
You don't want to miss this one. Can't wait to read more of Jeremy Bates, a really talented writer. Read more

Review:This book is gorgeous and inspiring! Be warned though- if you actually plan to cook these recipes they are not for the novice chef, and you will have to search for some of the ingredients. For me though, this was part of the fun. She makes me want to move to the french countryside to have lots of babies and cook all day. Read more

Review:I really liked this book, it was good reading, no boring parts. My only thought was after 20 years and there was still that "spark". It made it almost unbelievable, almost fairy tale. I may suggest it to my book club, thats where I got the name and author, in Good Housekeeping magazine a book club had read and discussed this book and I had to read it! Read more

Review:An interesting light-hearted read with lots of likeable characters and fairly predictable outcomes. Good for reading on kindle while waiting for the train or travelling on a long trip. Provides some cultural insights too. Read more

Review:I adore this book and have read it multiple times. From the time I read this book I searched & waited for more books to be written by Peter Mayle and have read almost all he has written. I love the visual picture I get from his discription of the characters and landscape of France. I would encourage you to read this fun and entertaining story of their transition from England to Provence. Read more

It's an easy, quick read, with some recipes sprinkled in here and there that I will probably try. Worth looking in to.

And now I feel that I have to go to Italy in the spring. He... Read more

Review:Such a good read. I loved Callum--the kind of man anyone would be lucky to have. Lilah's character was great. I appreciated that Kelly made her strong and independent--though I found her to be a bit stuck up (but still very well done.) The banter between the two characters was captivating--from their first meeting, I fell in love with their conversation and was hooked. The book is well-written and sweet, though some of the scenes went on a little longer than they should have--in my opinion. I de... Read more

Review:This is a fantastic story! Winter is a literary student in New York, Cade is a cowboy from Texas, and they're both on their way to Paris to study for the summer, maybe longer. Winter has secrets from her past and it keeps popping up to torment her. Cade is a bit broken and filled with uncalled for guilt, as well as an intense relationship with his dad, and dreams of doing his own thing- not following in dad's footsteps.
They meet before crossing the ocean, and Cade immediately feels the ne... Read more
