What will be will be...

Belinda Marshall’s idyllic teenage life in Brittany, France, fell apart when her parents dramatically separated and her mother took her back to England.
Fast forward thirty-five years when Belinda’s world is once again turned upside down.
It’s the week before Christmas and Belinda's employer 'surprises’ her by asking for her help to rejuvenate their latest investment, a run-down campsite in Brittany.
Memories and anxieties that had lain dormant for years suddenly begin to resurface.
As secrets from a lost life threaten to overwhelm her, there is a realisation that maybe she wasn’t told the whole truth by her mother all those years ago.
Can Belinda reconcile her emotions and find happiness once more in the place she so loved and called home?

Jennifer Bohnet writes a good story and make you feel as if you are there or want to be there. Can't fault her books, enjoyed nearly all that I've read. I won't buy if there isn't a good amount of reading though!

I did enjoy this story, as I have all of this author’s books. The characters are believable and nicely expanded. I had a few tears with this one, the ending was good and tidy. Lovely!

Thank you for a lovely story. The characters are memorable and this took me away from myself for a few delightful hours. Exactly what I needed. Nice to have a quiet romance with older people. Real and gentle.

All about Brittany

Reviewed in Australia on 29 April 2021

I liked this story very much. I could relate to the characters who dealt with their past as best they could. It is the beauty of Brittany that shines through though in the houses, the villages, the celebrations, the food. I am glad you like Brittany, Jenny, I do too.

A fabulous read to take you to France

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 August 2020

Verified Purchase

I have liked all of Jennifer's books so far and this is no exception, from the start the story hooked me in. Jennifer has a great way of describing the scenery and her characters whilst not all are warm - you need ones to hate or dislike you feel that you get to know them. I wish I could be more eloquent when doing a book review but that's why I'm a reader and not a writer.

Romantic escapism for mature women

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 December 2020

Verified Purchase

In these strange times it's escapism to just read about people doing normal things; having lunch with friends, hugging each other, catching the ferry to nip over to France, meeting new people.
In this book Belinda, a divorced woman and grandmother to twins, is asked by her employers to go to Brittany to troubleshoot the improvement of their latest business venture; a camping site. For Belinda the task is problematical, she spent her childhood in Brittany before an emotional crisis caused her mother to suddenly decided to return to England and sever all links with her father. On her deathbed her mother had made her promise to return and 'settle old ghosts' but Belinda hadn't yet had the time to do so.
Fern runs the auberge in the village, it was the family home of her late French husband. Divorced from her first husband she had been so happy to find love again but a car crash had taken that happiness away. She had invested her savings into turning the house into a business but the house was not her's although she was entitled to live in it. When Belinda comes to stay she realises how isolated grief has made her.
The book is an easy read with enough twists to retain interest, that and the appreciation of a different lifestyle which involves food, walks in the country and nights when you can see the stars in a virtually silent world make this book an enjoyable read.

Another Great Book from Jennifer Bohnet

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 August 2020

I do love Jennifer Bohnet's books. Her characters and descriptions of France transport you to a magical place, and take you away from everyday worries and cares. I think I've read all of this author's books, and every one of them has left me feeling uplifted. What more can one ask for? I hope she's writing more.

Really enjoyable story

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 September 2021

Verified Purchase

As with A Year of Taking Chances by the same author, there is the annoyance of repeated words within the same sentence or paragraph (for example, the word 'twins' four times in one page, and then 'pulling the suitcase out of the cupboard', she then 'placed the suitcase on the bed and began systematically to place things in it'). The worst one is the 'mesmeric swish of the windscreen wipers swiping rhythmically'. Oh dear, please, do they need to be mesmeric and swishing and swiping rhythmically all at once. Where is the editor? Overall, the story is good and I enjoyed this book immensely.

Patricia Bruce

Jolly good story, but....

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 October 2021

Verified Purchase

This was an excellent read, however, I found it really irritating with the french words added, usually, I can have a guess what words mean in a foreign language, but not this time.
And having the 'h' left out at the start of certain words, but not all, I found totally pointless. The reader knows the person speaking is French, it didn't need the above to authenticate it.
Apart from that, a really enjoyable read, with a different story line from most of today's books that are set abroad.
