Praise for The Little French Bistro "George beautifully evokes
Brittany with its rocky shores, crustacean-rich waters and Celtic
origins... It's no spoiler to say this novel offers a happy ending
-- and a satisfying one, as well." --The Washington Post ..".George
stops time and again to savor Brittany's delicacies--from a Belon
oyster washed down with a glass of Muscadet to a buttery
kouign-amann cake; scallops with cider apples to cotriade, a local
fish stew--embracing the true flavors of a land that 'shapes
people...not the other way around.'"--New York Times Book Review
"[Nina] George's engrossing novel is as much about indulging the
senses with succulent dishes and dazzling sights as it is about
romance and second chances. With a profound sense of place and
sensuous prose, the novel functions as a satisfying virtual visit
to the French Riviera. A luscious and uplifting tale of personal
redemption in the tradition of Eat, Pray, Love." --Kirkus Reviews
"George envelops the reader in the sights, sounds, and smells of
the coastal town, heightening Marianne's new experiences with lush
descriptions of Breton life. Fans of Elizabeth Gilbert and Isabel
Allende will adore this courageous story of new beginnings, second
chances, and the power of self-love." --Booklist "The author of The
Little Paris Bookshop has done it again. The message of this
beguiling, second-chance romance--a rich life is possible at any
age--will charm readers with its ring of truth." --Library Journal

that comes when women own up to their potential." --Woodbury
