Publisher Description
Like a glass of wine in the French afternoon sunshine, The French for Love is the perfect summer escape.
Can happy-ever-after get lost in translation?
Gina has lost her perfect job, her boyfriend, and her favorite aunt all within the space of a few months.
So when she inherits her aunt's ramshackle French house, Gina decides to pack her bags for the Bordeaux countryside—swapping English weather for blue skies, sunshine, great wine and a fresh start.
What she hasn't factored in is a hole in the roof, the most embarrassing language faux pas, and discovering family secrets that she was never supposed to know.
Suddenly feeling a long way from home, Gina will have to rely on new found friends, her own hard work—and Cédric—her charming, mysterious, and très handsome new stonemason.
But whilst desire needs no translation, love is a different matter. Can Gina overcome the language barrier to make her French dream come true?

About Fiona Valpy

She and her family renovated an old, rambling farmhouse in the Bordeaux winelands, during which time she developed new-found skills in cement-mixing, interior decorating and wine-tasting. All of these inspirations, along with a love for the place, the people and their history, have found their way into the books she’s written, which have been translated into German, Norwegian, Czech and Turkish. Fiona now lives in Scotland, but enjoys regular visits to France in search of the sun.
