The Recipe for Hope ~ Escape to France #3 (by Fiona Valpy)

I actually read this book several years ago when it was published under the title, The French for Christmas. I loved it then and enjoyed it once again. I adore the Christmas season and appreciated that this took place during that time. Though the main character, Evie, is escaping from some personal trauma, I could understand her need to isolate herself. But sometimes that’s now how we are meant to heal. So, amidst the quietness of this peaceful French village, she finds inspiration through her grandmother’s recipes. But the most poignant is that she discovers the recipe for hope. A seasonal book that has your heart aching one moment and then filling with hope the next. A good one to put on your to-be-read list!
