As the sun rises over the little Provence village where single mother Adeline has escaped with her little girl Lili, she breathes deeply. This is their new beginning. Here, she can forget the lies her family told her. Here, she can start her story again.
Later she opens the door to the town's tiny bookstore, where she is to work, ready to meet the mysterious owner Monique for the first time.
She expected an ordinary bookshop. But this bookstore feels somehow different' magical. Breathing in the smell of books, she feels a jolt of something. It feels like a new chapter beginning.
As she gets to know the villagers ' including the handsome Andre and friendly Michel ' she starts to believe in the magic of this new start. But can a runaway like Adeline ever find what she's looking for? Or is a happy-ever-after just another fiction?
A totally gorgeous, escapist, romantic novel ' set in rural Provence ' by the bestselling author of A Year at the French Farmhouse and The Bordeaux Bookclub.
