Bella... A French Life

An Evocative French Love Story Men leave, says Bella. There is Jean-Louis - French, a successful Paris lawyer and wealthy, elegant and a good-looker, but arrogant, selfish and scornful of ‘losers’. And he is married and the father of two daughters. Colin - English, a writer, cultured, kind and protective - steps into Bella’s life, but in his own words, “I always run. I always have to be elsewhere, in some other place.” Will Jean-Louis leave his wife? Will Colin stop running? Bella, alone this winter at her guest house on the beautiful Normandy coast of France, recalls words once said - pray that your loneliness will spur you into finding something to live for, something great enough to die for - and she hopes that this ‘something’ will be either Jean-Louis or Colin. Romantic, intelligent and truly evocative of the sights, sounds and tastes of rural Normandy; Bella…A French Life will stay with you long after you have finished reading it.
