#AD Book Review: Falling For Her French Tycoon by Rebecca Winters

Nathalie Fournier is a pharmacist desperately wants to adopt her deceased step-sister’s (Antoinette) baby boy. Conscientiously she decides to track down the Alain’s father before she does take the first steps to adopt him. She gets a seasonal job picking grapes at a large Provençal grapeyard/chateau as her Antoinette’s best friend Claire sister had told her that Alain’s father had worked at the Fontesquieu chateau. She falls for her billionaire employer Dominic Fontesquieu, but is he the father of the child? He has the same colouring and an identical birth mark. Raul, Dominic’s cousin turns out to be the father. Nathalie, however, decides she cannot have a relationship with Dominic as she is unable to have children. Will they be overcome this impasse and find their HEA? 

I found this novel heavy going to get through as there are so many questions and flaws that remain unanswered. When Dominic tells Raul he may have a son he doesn’t tell him that the woman he loved is dead. He leaves that announcement for Nathalie. Despite the story being set in Provence there is a lack of descriptive scenes - it might as well have been set in Timbuktu!! The storyline hinged solely on shoes the father and this got overdone very quickly. The interaction between Paul Courtier and just petered out and was a waste of a character. The storyline had potential but the finished novel needed some more work. 

I received this novel from Mills & Boon via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review

  1. I do enjoy reading your candid reviews! A pharmacist getting a job as a grape picker would make it difficult for me to get into the storyline. This book is not for me but thanks, as ever, for the review.
