Amy Carter relocates to the
beautiful Provencal countryside to run a guest house at the mysterious, but
beautiful, Bellefontaine. It’s a place that is riddled with the secrets of its
ancient past and bound up in the shadows of local folklore. Right from the
start Amy discovers that running the guest house isn’t going to easy; there are
too many unexpected happenings which rattle her confidence. Added to the mystery
of Bellefontaine, is the allure of the enigmatic Fabien Coste, an arrogant
owner of a nearby chateau, whose own family history is connected with Bellefontaine’s
mysterious past.
What then follows is a nicely
written romantic suspense story which uses the beautiful allure of the French
countryside to take the reader, not just on a journey into the past, but also
combines a love affair which is firmly placed in the here and now. I enjoyed
getting to know the characters; Amy is a feisty heroine and Fabien, the quintessential
sexy hero, is a welcome distraction from some of the darker elements of the
story.
The story flows well and whilst
there are no great surprises in who is behind some of the events which take
place, there are certainly more than enough thrills and spills to keep you
turning the pages in order to see just how the story eventually plays out.
I enjoyed A Spell in Provence and look forward to
more stories from this author.
