Publisher's Synopsis
Andy and Margaret Becker are married baby boomers enjoying their retirement when Margaret discovers a book that refuels her longtime dream of traveling to Provence. Now all she has to do is convince a reluctant Andy to embark on a journey with her that will forever change their lives and their marriage.
Despite the fact that Andy has discussed traveling to Provence for decades, he soon finds himself trapped in Margaret's web of adventure. After he agrees to rent a house in Provence where he and Margaret can walk to the market, have lunch in a café, and enjoy baguettes accompanied by unpasteurized cheese and lavender honey, Andy must adjust to sleeping in a tiny bed, changing lanes in traffic circles, and eating more bad carbohydrates than he ever has in his life. But Andy makes the best of his adventure, fully embedding himself in the French culture and even falling in love with the scraggly dog that lives on the property surrounding their wee house.
After a series of humorous events, Andy is unknowingly initiated into a freer way of life as he experiences the people, the unhurried atmosphere of French eating and drinking, and the fascinating history of Provence.
