Publisher Description
The BRILLIANT romantic comedy from MULTI-MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER Portia MacIntosh.
This writer's retreat has a plot twist...
Romantic comedy writer Amber Page is stuck in a rut.
After her editor tells her she needs to "up the spice" in her books (literally Amber's worst nightmare...), she is at a crossroads with what to do with her career.
When the opportunity arises to go on a writer's retreat at an exclusive château in the beautiful French Alps Amber reluctantly agrees, hoping a change of scenery will help with inspiration.
But while she tries and fails to spice up her writing - with the unhelpful guidance of the eccentric romance writers at the château - she meets two leading men who cause her own real-life romantic comedy to unfold...
A laugh-out-loud love triangle, forced proximity romantic comedy from MULTI-MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER Portia MacIntosh.

Customer Reviews
Entertaining
I liked the humour and the realistic approach to life of the main character and of course the setting was just escapism but at times I struggled to get on with the situations. Too likeable male sort of colleagues and even if use of time is left to the participants, there isn’t any kind of writers retreat where you can do anything but writing. I wish there was more comedy, more absurd situations and a bit more jokes about writers not just the main character self deprecating moments. Can it be classified as a romance genre? I’m not sure. Maybe because I don’t know really what is meant nowadays with romantic books.
