A Wedding in Provence: From the #1 bestselling author of uplifting feel-good fiction

I don’t think I could have picked a better story for my first ever Katie Fforde book. Plus, I got to buddy read it with my booksta bestie, Hannah. Well, I say buddy read… *taps chin*This was your typical Hannah/Laura buddy read where the planned reading schedule goes to pot on the first night *snorts*. So, after a trying week at work I had a date with my sofa and the book on the Saturday and I wasn’t moving!*sighs* I devoured Alexandra’s story in just over a day. Once I started I didn’t want to put it down as the story unfolded. I hesitate to use the term easy-read as there is a skill to make a read this effortless. The pages were turning themselves!Set in the early 60s, a chance meeting in Paris will change 20-year-old Alexandra’s life… at least for the summer. Oh come on, I can’t give all the story away!I will say this… if you have a weakness for pining/unrequited love à la forbidden love (ish!), self-discovery and found family tropes then you are in for a treat!Btw, I’d go ahead and admit surrender right now and prepare to lose your heart to a sassy nine-year-old.Also, please tell me I’m not the only one that was getting all The Sound of Music vibes? Hello Captain Von Trapp aka Antoine! *sighs* (again!) It’s the whole saying so much without saying anything, isn’t it? Hello to The Look! Words are so underrated!It was as if the Chateau and its inhabitants were just waiting for Alexandra’s arrival (and those who follow) to breathe new life back into it. Talk about being a spark! I just wish I’d been there for one event in particular.Oops, I best shut up now or I’ll be here rambling all day. To sum up, I think it’s safe to say this won’t be my last KF read.

Predictable but good I would recommend it if your wanting a laid back read I liked the characters especially Steffi

Different to her other novels - set in the 60a rather than modern day. Charming story with a predictable happy ending

I havnt read a Katie fforde for years I used to collect them ,But I've just read this such a fabulous story and made me remember what a great story she writes absolutely loved it 5 stars

Yes it really does do what it says on the tin!!! Corny it may be . . . . . . But enjoyable for all that and quite insightful on the differences between UK and La France.

Nice story and a feel good read

I was there from the first page and couldn’t stop reading. Every evening I couldn’t wait until bedtime so that I could continue with the life at the château. Wish it could go on longer. Loved it. Forgot how good Katie Fforde books were.

This is not my usual kind of book but I loved it. I was transported back to our many French holidays. I could imagine le chateau and the markets. A very well written book and very descriptive
