A Very French Affair by Sue Roberts

Liv is a cake maker by trade, Sam who is into vintage clothing is her assistant in her cake making business attached to her home for productivity and also is training at a local catering college.

Baked To Perfection is her passion and her family particularly her aunt in France was a great baker, with her parents off touring in a campervan now into their retirement and her son back at home after being away at university and questioning about his father, she finds herself thinking back to her first love André from when she was eighteen and in France at her aunt's with Faye her life long best friend when they were eighteen.

Liv worries about Faye as she drinks a lot and is always out at gigs looking for a fun time, as her friend regales them with tales of Harold and her matchmaking attempts, in France Faye finds a fun time with Olivier a bakery helper to Liv's aunt and she
herself finds André from pure chance and as the pair get reacquainted she has to decide how to approach the subject of his son.

Jake also hides a few secrets from his mum which when he shows up in Spain unexpectedly come out about the truth behind his future plans...

The book started off on an hilarious note about a cake being made as a toilet and who isn't going to be drawn in by that sentence! I loved the journey to France and discovering the whole chemistry over the history with Andre and couldn't put it down I liked the pace of the book and the characters where super relatable as I'm sure in real life people have been in this position before!

Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this book for them!
