'I can't live with total strangers… can I?'

Bella's living her dream life, running a beautiful, rural French B&B and has finally put her past behind her. But when her husband suddenly asks for a divorce, everything changes.

Forced to abandon everything she'd built before, she finds herself moving to the beautiful town of Versailles, where she takes a job working in a hotel, and moves into a chaotic house share.

At first, it doesn't feel like a problem that she can't seem to convince her young housemates she's older than them – it's quite nice to pretend she's in her 20s again. But when it becomes clear her new boss has also hired her under false pretences, she starts to wonder if she's gone from living the dream to living a lie.

Despite the chaos though, she starts to feel that spark return. Even more so when handsome American landlord Brad arrives on the scene. But with so many secrets – now and in her past – how will Bella's new start end?

Don't miss this gorgeous, escapist, uplifting story!
