Description
After ten years of dedicated work as a graphic designer, Lily Butterworth is unexpectedly laid off. And like any smart woman knows, the remedy for an excess of time is a little wine and a chat with her best friend. However, the next morning, Lily has more than just a hangover. She has a completely new house – and moreover, in France! Despite her initial disillusionment, she sees it as a great opportunity and looks forward to finally moving to France with her husband Ben, as they have dreamed of for over twenty years. However, Lily is in for another unpleasant surprise. It turns out that Ben never actually intended to go to France, and Lily unexpectedly loses not only her job but also her marriage. So she has no choice but to tackle the renovation of the beautiful old house, which is held together only by wallpaper and unspoken wishes, all on her own. Will life in the French countryside truly be as Lily has dreamed of all these years? And can she maintain her distance from the previous owner of the house, the charming Frédérique?
