A French chef in smalltown Vermont finds a summer fling that just might last in the USA Today–bestselling author’s “poignant and heartfelt” romance (Publishers Weekly).

Having fallen in love with her new home in Snow Crystal, Vermont, fiery French chef Elise Philippe is determined to make this summer unforgettable. But with the grand opening of her chic café falling apart, it looks like it might for all the wrong reasons. Until Sean O’Neill comes back to town.
