The French Chateau Dream is the latest in the Romantic Escape series. I’ve had the pleasure of reading the previous two books, but if you haven’t had the opportunity, don’t worry: each book is a standalone story. What ties the books together is the introduction of a character in one book that takes center stage in the next.
Hattie has taken the job of wedding planner for a wealthy family member. The setting is a much-neglected French chateau set in the Champagne region, whose owner made the deal with Hattie before consulting the rest of his family, who very much have something to say about it.
There’s a ton of roadblocks and a lot of work ahead of Hattie if she’s going to pull off this wedding. There’s also the chateau’s sexy son, who is anxious to return his family’s vineyard to its former glory and produce champagne again. He’s all for Hattie fixing up the place, and the tension between them leaps off the page. Hattie’s not looking for love, but it seems to have fallen into her lap.
I really enjoyed the cast of characters, and the descriptions of the setting, which transports the reader to a French wonderland. I certainly enjoyed this bit of escapism and found this the perfect beach read for Summer 2023.
