This delightfully charming PB novel takes place primarily in Provence, France. The lead character has a midlife moment and quits his advertising job based in London. He moves to France to purchase and renovate an abandoned building to make it into a boutique hotel. He unexpectedly meets a practical, lovely woman who helps renovate him and the derelict building. The setting is luscious. Many other characters are brought to light, making this a richly interesting read, even including a heist. Recommended.

This is a pleasant read for those of us interested in Provence and novels French in tone. The humor is light and the escapism most welcome.
