Story
Could one summer on the Italian coast change Brie's life forever? Brianna Middleton has won the hearts of millions of readers with her sweeping love stories. But the girl behind the typewriter is struggling... Not only does she have writer's block, but she's a world-famous romance author with zero romance in her own life. So the opportunity to spend the summer teaching at a writer's retreat in an idyllic villa on the shores of Lake Garda – owned by the enigmatic bachelor Arran Jamieson – could just be the thing to fire up Brie's writing, and maybe even her romantic life.

Story
After ten years of loyal service, Daisy Butterworth has been made redundant. Like any clever woman, she knows the cure to redundancy is a little too much wine and her best friend. Only the next morning, Daisy has more than a hangover...she has a whole new house—in France! Seeing this as an opportunity instead of a disaster, she’s excited about finally moving to France, just as she and her husband always dreamed of. However, Daisy is in for another surprise. Despite planning to move there for over 20 years, her husband never actually intended to go.

Publisher's Summary
Is a change as good as a rest?
When married couple Fern and Aiden have a windfall, their reactions could not be more different. While Fern is content to pay off their mortgage and build a nest egg before starting a family, her husband is set on travelling the world.
Fern’s not much of a backpacker so, before she knows it, the idea of a ‘marriage gap year’ takes shape. And, as Aiden heads off to the wilds of Australia, Fern chooses the more restful Provence for her year out.
Set amidst the glorious French scenery, Château de Vernon offers a retreat from the hustle and bustle of normal life, and Fern agrees to help out in return for painting lessons from the owner – renowned, but rather troubled, painter Nico.
As their year unfolds in very different ways, will the time apart transform their marriage, or will it drive Fern and Aiden even further apart?
Let Lucy Coleman whisk you off on a heart-warming, sun-drenched and magical French adventure.

Interesting
Whilst it took me a little while to get into the book I then found it interesting. It was a lovely read. I loved the way this book ended. Hats off to the author who gave an insight into how and what happened to the others characters.

Slow read quick end
Was a bit slow to progress. Quick to end. Wasn’t that satisfying of a read. Not as deep as I’d have hoped it would be

Fun easy listen
Great fun and easy book to listen to.
I didn't realise the English use the word banter for conversation. We don't use it that much in Australia.

Characters were meh
Characters were very undeveloped, especially the main character Fern, who seemed to have no faults or selfish thoughts ever. She seemed more like a woman of 45 than her late 20s, and i cant help thinking that others would have found her a bit painful and neurotic rather than being universally adored. The story was quite repetitive in the descriptions of her constant worries, and did a lot of telling rather than showing her development. Overall it was ok for a light hearted story, but nothing ground breaking

The protagonist should have been in her 30s
Fern is way too mature and wise for an under-30-year-old! The author should have made her at least 5 years older and the mature voice of the narrator, while lovely, didn't really suit Fern's age. Otherwise, the story was delightful.
