Franny Marten's life is unraveling. Expecting to meet her boyfriend, Marcus Marks, 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 than she could ever have imagined. And, amazingly, the women become fast friends. When Franny is unexpectedly offered an all-expenses-paid invitation to a family reunion in Provence, she goes, and takes Clare along for the ride. Provence is everything Franny pictured, but nothing at all what she expected. There are dangerous family secrets buried deep in the lovely landscape of southern France, and there is someone who will go to great lengths to keep Franny from uncovering them. Elizabeth Adler casts an unforgettable spell as Invitation to Provence transports listeners to a truly magical place.
When Franny Marten meets her lover's wife, Claire, she wonders what else can go wrong. Surprisingly, Franny and Claire become such close friends that when Franny is invited to France to meet family, Clair goes along for the adventure. Carrington MacDuffie's voice curls around the words of this romance as the two women relax in Provence, enjoy the simple village life, and meet men who win their hearts. Yet there are secrets in the family that Franny and Claire unwittingly discover. MacDuffie contrasts light French accents and American intonation. Love and hate are also set in sharp contrast in this charming story. M.B.K. 2005 Audie Award Finalist (c) AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine
