Cath's is forever putting everyone else's needs ahead of her own but now her son has left for university and fed up of being a butler to her bone idle jobless brother, she decides enough is enough and its time to do something for herself. She heads to France to retrace her great grandfathers steps (a solider in WWI), nervous to be travelling alone but excited to discover the wonder a new place can offer. She doesn't expect sparks to fly with the handsome tour guide Oliver... will this adventure be more life changing than anticipated?

This novel is perfectly balanced fun, laughter-inducing and uplifting. The blend of romance and WWI history is insightful and enlightening. A perfect read with great characters the prove sometimes it is good to step out of your comfort zone.
