About this listen

So good I could almost taste it. Magnifique!' Milly Johnson, bestselling author of My One True North

Cosy up with this heart-warming, romantic story from Jo Thomas about turning your dreams into a reality.

- - - - -

When their grandfather dies, Fliss and her sisters are astonished to inherit a French chateau! Travelling to Normandy to visit the beautiful if faded house, they excitedly make plans over delicious crepes and local cider in the town nearby.

But they soon discover the chateau needs major work, a huge tax bill is due . . . and there's a sitting tenant to whom they owe a monthly allowance.

Unable to sell but strapped for cash, Fliss determines to spruce up the elegant old rooms and open a B&B. But, why is Jacques, the local mayor, so hostile? How did Fliss's grandfather come to own the place anyway? And will Jacques and Fliss be able to put their differences aside to save the chateau?

Inspired by Escape to the Chateau, this cosy and uplifting novel to curl up with, from the author of Escape to the French Farmhouse and Finding Love at the Christmas Market.

Really enjoyed listening to this, primarily on the Eurostar to Paris and back and it helped get me in the mood! We passed a similar château en route! Another great book by Jo Thomas.

Such a lovely atmospheric and romantic story. Such a pity the narrator’s grasp of French meant that poor and incorrect pronunciation slightly marred the flow of the listening pleasure.

Great story!
