On the beautiful French coast lies the Caf Belle Vie, a peaceful haven offering a warm welcome and delicious pains au chocolat - and where Natalie's quiet life is about to be turned upside down...
When thirty-one-year-old Natalie Bright's boyfriend dumps her and immediately gets engaged to his ex-girlfriend, she escapes her heartbreak and moves to the charming village of Chamillon on the le de R .
She's determined to build a new life there: writing about farmer's markets for a local magazine, exploring the local vineyards on her bike, and taking advantage of the sunshine. And in the Caf Belle Vie she finds a bustling community - including new best friend Charlie - and a near-constant supply of cakes.
All in all, things are looking pretty good.
So when a blast from the past - her teenage crush Jay Merino - suddenly turns up in Chamillon, Natalie's thrown. She's sworn off men ever since she moved to France, but she and Jay have a connection that stretches back years.
But could taking a chance on an old flame complete her new life - or ruin everything she's worked so hard for?
A gorgeous rom com full of sunshine, croissants and sparkling romance Perfect for fans of Debbie Johnson, Zara Stoneley and Debbie Macomber.
What readers are saying about Escape to the Little French Caf :
'Had me laughing out loud... A very light-hearted read with a healthy dose of romance thrown in for good measure. Jay certainly set my heart aflutter and I could easily envision him in my head which had me fall a little in love with him... A fun-filled read with plenty to entertain... Wonderful location, romance and a hot love interest. What isn't to like? A wonderful French escape.' bytheletterbookreviews
'A charming and funny read that is perfect to enjoy while on holiday or when you want to escape to France in your mind for a few hours. The author has an amazing way of developing the characters over the story and you always end up deeply invested in their lives.' South Dublin Reads, 5 stars
'Charming and funny, I loved this book. A great read with nice characters, perfect beach reading. I love the cover too, I find a good one helps make a novel ' NetGalley reviewer
'Oh this was fun... Like all of Clarke's books her characters bring the setting alive, and allow us moments of escape, camaraderie and even a few moments to wince at the embarrassing bits, always leading us to new friends and places that, if not visited in person, are just as wonderful to visit in a book.' I am, Indeed
'A perfect light, fast read for vacation... Great read, highly recommend.' Goodreads reviewer

Описание: The foreword to this extraordinary life-changing book has been written by Dr. Arun Gandhi, grandson of the great Mahatma Gandhi. 'From Bullied to Brilliant' is not only a resource tool for those who feel bullied, intimidated, diminished or lacking in personal power but equally for those who have a tendency to bully and intimidate and are seeking a calmer and less painful path. Using the guiding principals of the Great Mahatma, Karen looks at bullying in a refreshing and at times, confronting manner. 'From Bullied to Brilliant' is a guidebook for adults but can be used to support those wishing to help children and students through the complexities of rejection and challenging relationships. Experiencing bullying or abusive relationships can be devastating. People who have been bullied, rejected or isolated often suffer in silence and harbour feelings of worthlessness. 'From Bullied to Brilliant' provides a radical new way to rapidly end the cycle of dominance and intimidation. Those who have experienced bullying either as 'victim' or perpetrator, will learn how to rediscover their strength and purpose and find hope and self-acceptance. Through real-life case studies as well as the author's personal reflections and professional experience, this groundbreaking book shares examples of bullying and intimidation, sheds light on how to understand the cause of bullying and importantly, how to end it.Karen has a deep understanding of bullying and social isolation, both in her capacity as a trainer, speaker, and professional coach and, through her personal experiences of bullying. The mother of three and one of seven herself, Karen understands the pressures families face when bullying becomes an issue. 'From Bullied to Brilliant' helps adults, organisations, educators, and teenagers understand how a change in thinking and perception can end the bully-victim cycle. The world is full of questions, perhaps our answers lie within.
Snow is falling and there's romance in the air. Curl up for a cosy Christmas by the fire at Seaview Cottage...
When thirty-year-old Lily Ambrose's latest relationship ends in disaster, she remembers happy childhood holidays in the seaside town of Shipley and decides it's the perfect place for a fresh start.
But when Lily arrives, the town's spirits are as low as her own: the local celebrity due to turn on the Christmas lights has gone on a cruise instead. Keen to prove herself, she calls in a favour and secures gorgeous reality star Ollie.
Lily's neighbours are initially thrilled, but Ollie is as uncontrollable as he is good-looking. He can't remember the town's name, calls the Christmas decorations tacky, and manages to offend everyone. And whilst handsome but stubborn cameraman Craig tries to help, even he can't stop Ollie's madcap plans to stage a romance with Lily...
Will Lily be able to keep Ollie under control and bring the Christmas cheer back to Shipley - and find herself a real kiss under the mistletoe?
An addictive, heart-warming and uplifting read about friendship, romance, and Christmas spirit. Perfect for fans of Phillipa Ashley, Cathy Bramley and Debbie Johnson.
