Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:SHE'S UNLUCKY IN LOVE... In the south of France, secrets meander through the sun-drenched countryside like grapevines-and like fine wine, they grow richer with every year that passes. But Franny Marten knows little of this world. All that meanders through her tiny cottage in California is the dream of falling in love. Franny thought that dream might come true-until she meets her lover's wife! But just as Franny feels her heart break one too many times, she receives a mysterious letter in the mail that changes everything...
...UNTIL A LETTER FROM AFAR DARES HER TO TAKE A CHANCE... The letter is an invitation to a Marten family reunion at a chateau in Provence. Knowing little about her family, Franny throws caution to the wind and packs her bags for the adventure of a lifetime. Her decision to go to France will thrust her into a world perched on the edge of time, where the azure swirl of the Mediterranean lingers in the distance with the promise that anything is possible. And when Franny learns why fate has brought her to Provence, she will finally understand that when it comes to love, sometimes all is not what it seems. Sometimes, it's even better... "Stunningly written, evenly paced, and peopled with magnificent characters. Adler moves this character driven story along brilliantly with exquisite narrative and pleasurable writing...a dash of romance, a soupcon of mystery, and hours of pure entertainment." --Affaire de Coeur "Adler's lyrical, romantic writing style shines through...captivating romance, picturesque landscapes, and charming characters fill the pages of this enthralling novel of women's fiction...[a] top-notch read." --Romantic Times Synopsis:After discovering her boyfriend is married, Franny Marten actually becomes friends with his wife, who accompanies her to a family reunion in France. Even more surprises are in store as there are dangerous family secrets buried deep in the lush landscape of Provence. Martin's Press. Synopsis:Franny Marten's life is unraveling--after arranging to meet her boyfriend Marcus for dinner she finds his wife waiting for her instead. After the initial shock wears off, Franny finds she has more in common with Clare Marks that she could ever have imagined. And, amazingly, the women become fast friends. But even more surprises are in store for Franny Marten: she is unexpectedly offered an all-expenses-paid invitation to go to a reunion of her estranged family in Provence. And Clare decides to charge the trip to Marcus (for his sins) and come along. Franny knows very little about the French side of her family, but how stressful can meeting long-lost aunts and cousins be after what she and Clare have just gone through? Provence is everything Franny pictured, but nothing at all what she expected. There are dangerous family secrets buried deep in the lovely, lush landscape of Provence, and someone who will go to any lengths to keep Franny from uncovering them. Jake Bronson is an American with ties to the Marten family, and he seems to know more than he's saying. He's the most intriguing and compelling man Franny's ever encountered, but there are treacherous currents surrounding him. And at the center of it all is the matriarch, Rafaella Marten, a woman with secrets going back decades. Her two sons have caused her both heartache and joy, but Franny may ultimately be the key to truly reuniting the Marten family--and putting to rest the shadows, scandals, and the rivalry of a dynasty. Evoking the lush descriptions of everything that is Provence, Elizabeth Adler casts an unforgettable spell as Invitation to Provence transports you to a truly magical place.
