Late summer, 1963. Fresh from London and a recent cookery course, Alexandra has always loved a challenge. Which is why she now finds herself standing outside an imposing chateau in Provence. Waiting for her inside is three silent, rather hostile children who are to be her charges for the next month. They will soon be more friendly, she tells herself. All they need is some fun, good food and an English education. Far more of a challenge though is their father—an impossibly good-looking French count with whom she is rapidly falling in love.

Lucy needed a change of scene. She didn't expect the change of a lifetime. Doctors Without Borders has been Lucy Young’s life for the past four years. After an emergency extraction from a conflict zone, she's making a change from saving lives under gunfire to practising medicine in safe, serene Siena. Now treating obscenely wealthy patients at a private clinic, she's never felt less comfortable. She’s used to helping those in dire need - not those in need of a nip and tuck.

Summary
Soundings and Choc Lit present the audio edition of Escape to the Little Chateau.
Amy Carter is determined to make Bellefontaine, her farmhouse hotel in the French countryside, a success. Of course, there’s the time and money she’s put in to making it beautiful, but she also has something to prove - particularly to people like Fabien Coste. Fabien is the owner of the nearby château, and he might just be the most arrogant, patronising man Amy has ever met...unfortunately, he’s also the most handsome.
But as rumours circulate in the local community, Amy quickly sees the less idyllic side of life at Bellefontaine. Could Fabien be the man to help prevent her Provençal dream from turning into a nightmare?
