When Flora, James and their two teenage daughters are offered the holiday of a lifetime in a chateau in the south of France in return for one simple good deed, they jump at the chance. They exchange the confines of Clapham, the weight of the mortgage and anxieties over their future for a blissful break.

Sink into the hilarious feel-good story of a family holiday gone wrong from the Sunday Times bestselling author of A Cornish Summer

'Wonderful story that made me laugh but also cry... great escapism' 5***** Reader Review

When Flora, James and their two teenage daughters are offered a free holiday in a beautiful chateau in the South of France in return for an act of kindness, they obviously jump at the chance.

A break from hectic London - what could be better?

But Flora wasn't expecting a whole heap of family baggage coming along too - including some surprise guests.

And especially not James developing a crush on their famous host.

Perhaps this won't be the dream holiday she had in mind . . .

If you like Jill Mansell, Cathy Kelly and Fern Britton you'll love this.
