Once I started this book I could not put it down.  The descriptions were so good they made you feel like you were actually there in France drinking the wine.  I really loved the development of the characters as they became more sure of their feelings towards each other. I felt Mary-Beth's character was very down to earth and believable. Dr. Malroux and Mary-Beth had one night together. Even though at that time she was "plump" he still remembered that night with her even after 3 years.  Even though she had lost the weight he still did not care - he still loved her either way.  It seems like a lot of books you pick up the heroine or main female is just about perfect and it was very refreshing to have a normal down-to-earth heroine with all of her insecurities that a lot of us have.  I think the author's take on Mary-Beth was amazingly done and it just shows the heroine/female does not always have to be "perfect." If you have not read any of the author's books, I highly recommend them - you won't be disappointed.
