A Witty Coming-of-Age Romance at Château Vin Rouge
Terrific Tours Series
A laugh-out-loud, heart-tugging romantic comedy about finding purpose, falling in love, and discovering that the best things in life can’t be bought.
Esther Smith’s life in South Africa is all champagne and silk sheets, until her father sends her to rural France for the summer to “learn responsibility.” Arriving at Château Vin Rouge in designer heels, Esther is horrified to discover she’s expected to work. Scrubbing floors, cooking for guests, and sharing a stable room with strangers were definitely not on her packing list.
Then there’s Benji, the maddeningly calm and quietly magnetic Head Cleaner who sees straight through her privileged façade. Between disastrous chores, late-night kitchen raids, and a connection she never saw coming, Esther starts to discover who she really is, and what she actually wants.
But when her family calls her home with news that changes everything, Esther must choose: return to the life she always knew, or fight for the one she’s only just begun to build.
Warm, funny, and full of heart, A Fish Out of Sparkling Water is the perfect escape for readers who love romantic comedies with travel, transformation, and a heroine who learns that sometimes the best adventures start when everything goes wrong.
Tropes: fish out of water, found family, slow burn, romantic comedy, travel romance
