a lovely summer break in France

When you can, spend you summer at a little French Guesthouse. But if that's not possible right not (and I'm right there with you), you can spend some time with Summer at the Little French Guesthouse, the third novel in Helen Pollard's lovely La Cour des Roses trilogy. 

Misplaced Brit Emmy Jamieson has not always had an easy time at La Cour des Roses, the picturesque French guesthouse where she currently works, helping manage the website and social media and jumping in to help with the cooking and cleaning when needed. But time and hard work have helped her find a happy new life in France. In addition to her work at the guesthouse, she is about to get married to the wonderful, caring, half-British, half-French Alain. And if that's not enough, she's started her own business working with local property owners to find them renters during the busy vacation season. 

Sounds pretty wonderful, right? Emmy thinks so too, until her mother becomes Mothra-of-the-Bride, making sure all the wedding preparations are made and details checked and double-checked. And with Alain's ex-wife still in the picture--as the wife of his brother--and doubts and secrets in the air, will Emmy find her happily ever after with her perfect French wedding, or will it all fall apart? 

Summer at the Little French Guesthouse is an adorable break from summer heat waves and rain storms. The world of Emmy Jamieson is a captivating combination of an irresistible place and delightful characters, and her story is perfect for a long, lazy summer afternoon. Get yourself a cold drink, get comfortable, and follow Helen Pollard to France for a well-earned vacation.
