Review: French Frolic.
Rating: 4 out of 5

Faith Mortimer is well known for her mystery novels, so this contemporary romance showcases her skills in a slightly different direction.A perfect setting with St. Tropez as a backdrop, and the author clearly has much knowledge of this area, and all things marine.Margaret has been dumped by a less than perfect fiance. When an opportunity to work in France is presented by the sailing company she works for, Margaret jumps at the chance of this change of life direction. And change it does, mostly in the form of handsome French businessman, Jean-Paul.Unfortunately, he is trapped in a loveless marriage and their resultant affair brings with it a good few twists and turns for Margaret, and a surprising, shocking climax.Good plotting and pacing, combined with a wonderful sense of France and the sailing community.
