Can she find her recipe for happiness?

Del and her husband Ollie moved to a beautiful village in Provence for a fresh start after years of infertility struggles. But six weeks after they arrive, they’re packing the removal van once more. As Del watches the van leave for England, she suddenly realises exactly what will make her happier…a new life in France – without Ollie.

Now alone, all Del has is a crumbling farmhouse, a mortgage to pay and a few lavender plants. What on earth is she going to do? Discovering an old recipe book at the market run by the rather attractive Fabian, Del starts to bake. But can her new-found passion really help her let go of the past and lead to true happiness?

A heart-warming tale about reclaiming your life, set amongst the lavender fields of Provence. Perfect escapism from the author of Late Summer in the Vineyard and The Honey Farm on the Hill.

Enjoyable from beginning to end straight down to the story teller who was perfect. I would have loved a second book. So sad it ended.

Such a lovely story!

I’ve been listening to many similarly-themed books. Unhappy Brit or American moves to France or Italy and worry if they have made a mistake. Eventually, it all works out. This one is a bit different. It delves into the homelessness in France but not in a heavy way. The protagonist, a Brit, not only wants to enjoy French living, but unlike many, she wants to adapt to the culture and, along the way, finds her happiness by doing so.

The narrator has a lovely voice. While not the best at male voices, her melodic sweet voice makes up for it.

A good listen—a good story. I look forward to more from Jo Thomas.
