The message of this beguiling, second-chance romance-a rich life is possible at any age-will charm readers with its ring of truth.” - Library Journal (starred) “The author of The Little Paris Bookshop has done it again. Fans of Elizabeth Gilbert and Isabel Allende will adore this courageous story of new beginnings, second chances, and the power of self-love.” - Booklist “George envelops the reader in the sights, sounds, and smells of the coastal town, heightening Marianne’s new experiences with lush descriptions of Breton life.
A luscious and uplifting tale of personal redemption in the tradition of Eat, Pray, Love.” - Kirkus Reviews With a profound sense of place and sensuous prose, the novel functions as a satisfying virtual visit to the French Riviera. “ George’s engrossing novel is as much about indulging the senses with succulent dishes and dazzling sights as it is about romance and second chances. “.George stops time and again to savor Brittany’s delicacies-from a Belon oyster washed down with a glass of Muscadet to a buttery kouign-amann cake scallops with cider apples to cotriade, a local fish stew-embracing the true flavors of a land that ‘shapes people…not the other way around.’” - New York Times Book Review “George beautifully evokes Brittany with its rocky shores, crustacean-rich waters and Celtic origins… It’s no spoiler to say this novel offers a happy ending - and a satisfying one, as well.” - The Washington Post
