Review: Escape to the Little French Cafe
Escape to the Little French Cafe by Karen Clarke
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Firstly, isn’t that an adorable cover ?
Escape to the Little French Café by Karen Clarke is a absolutely charming, cosy and fun read.
Natalie Bright is a writer, she has run away from a broken relationship by moving to a picturesque village in France and is staying with her father… She writes a column for a magazine for expats, but spends a lot of her time at the local Cafe Belle Vie. Her best friend Charlie runs the cafe with his mum. I did wonder if romance would blossom for this pair…..!
Natalie’s Dad’s dating escapades are hilarious, his new image was a laugh out loud moment…..that brown quiff….!!!
Natalie really wants to work for Magnifique, the successful French magazine but can’t even get an interview…..but then she finds out the famous actor, Jay Merino is filming nearby, she tells them she knows him (she did kiss him once many ears ago when they lived on the same estate) and says she can get an exclusive interview…..
Luckily for Natalie, Jay does remember her and that kiss and agrees to the interview…..there is certainly chemistry here….
The budding romance falters when someone leaks Jay’s personal information to the media….will they recover?
The characters are endearing and Natalie’s mishaps are so relatable…. This is an lovely, easy read with beautifully descriptive writing and its light, fun and ultimately heartwarming. Although I do now crave coffee and a pain au chocolat…..!
Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for a free copy of the ebook in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
