Synopsis
___________________
''A funny, spirited read'' - Daily Mail
''A hugely enjoyable romp of a novel'' - Katie Fforde
''Utterly delicious in every way'' - Joanna Lumley
___________________
Forced into early retirement, fed-up of babysitting her grandchildren and desperate to shake-up her life, Theresa sells up and leaves London behind for the sun-drenched, picture-perfect town of Bellevue-sur-Mer, just outside Nice.
Once the hideaway of artists and writers, Bellevue-sur-Mer is now home to the odd movie star, and as Theresa soon discovers, a close-knit set of foreign expats. Surrounded by beautiful villas, bustling cafes and shimmering cerulean sea, she falls headfirst into new found friendships and freedom.
But first impressions can be deceiving. And as skeletons start to fall out of several closets, Theresa finds herself wondering whether life on the French Riviera is really quite as nice as it seems…

Review
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 *
