Love Affairs For Grown-Ups

Dragooned into driving the female friend of a colleague?s wife through France, Cornelius Hedge is not at all happy. How on Earth is he expected to make small talk from Boulogne to Montelimar? First impressions are not auspicious: the moment he introduces himself, the woman inexplicably bursts into tears. But the time they?ve reached their destination, Cornelius has grown increasingly fond of the unassuming Katrina. She is interesting, entertaining, amusing; he?d actually like to see more of her. At their age, however, the past has a habit of intruding on the present. Ex-husbands, ex-wives, selfish sisters and sulky teenagers all seem to conspire to thwart the budding romance. What?s worse, both Katrina and Cornelius are hiding secrets from their past. Secrets that burst into the open ? with rather surprising results.
