What if the person you love the most is the one you can’t have?
Grace has loved Jackson since she was fifteen – when they spent every childhood summer exploring France's breathtaking Ardèche region together. They were best friends, until life took its course and Jackson married someone else.
Years later, Jackson re-enters Grace’s life with an irresistible offer: her dream job in the very town where their story began. And he’s newly single.
As memories from those idyllic summers flood back, Grace encounters an old friend Étienne, who proposes a plan to help make Jackson jealous. But as their scheme unfolds, Grace finds herself questioning if the sparks between them might not be so pretend after all…
Unbeknownst to Grace, Étienne is harbouring a secret that could shatter her world.
Will learning the truth finally set her heart free?
Or is this the beginning of a love story bigger than she ever imagined?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Toon (What If I Never Get Over You) makes the most of the French countryside setting of this transporting destination romance. Londoner Grace and New Yorker Jackson grew up spending summers together in Ardèche, where Grace would visit her grandmother, a ceramicist, and Jackson would stay with his grandfather, the owner of prestige spring water company Eau de Sainte Églantine. Grace loved Jackson in secret for much of that time and is devastated when he marries someone else. Three years after the wedding, Jackson is freshly divorced and tempts Grace, now a marketing professional, to return to Ardèche to work with him on rebranding Eau de Sainte Églantine. Once there, she also reunites with French car restorer Étienne, whom she first met at 17 when he was caring for his terminally ill mother. Étienne offers to flirt with Grace to help spur Jackson to action through jealousy. As this scheme plays out, however, Grace questions which man is really her endgame. Toon plays fair with the love triangle, skillfully building out each character's backstory. The real star here, though, is the dazzling scenery, from quaint small towns to caves bedecked with prehistoric art. Armchair travelers are sure to be pleased.
Customer Reviews
Great summer vibes book
I’m a huge fan of Paige Toon and this is another great book!! It focuses more on family and forgiveness and the courage it takes to follow your dream.
Slow paced & quite boring
Would not recommend. Boring book, slow paced. No real passion. It could have been so much better. Regret the purchase.
