Joined by seven of their friends they club together to invest in a château in Normandy. Group dinners, fine wine, beautiful scenery - they're living the dream! But la vie en rose is harder than it first appears. Is there a reason why only teenagers take gap years? The perfect read for fans of Jo Thomas, Cathy Bramley and Veronica Henry!
