'A hugely enjoyable romp of a novel with eccentric characters, a delightful background and a savoury tang of crime' Katie Fforde
'A warm, light-hearted, fast-paced tale that fans of Peter Mayle will enjoy' Joanne Harris
'A very witty novel by a very witty woman. Hugely entertaining' Julian Fellowes
'Utterly delicious in every way' Joanna Lumley
'A sunny, funny debut novel ... a keenly observed, rollicking tale of mature expats reinventing themselves on the French Riviera' Mail on Sunday
'This debut from national treasure actress Celia perfectly captures the colour of ex-pat life and the glitz and glamour of the South of France. A shaft of early summer sunshine, a funny, spirited read' Daily Mail
'It's lots of fun, with adventure at a certain age as its driving force, and sun-kissed recipes as chapter breaks' Sainsbury's Magazine
