Take a decadent and sizzling armchair vacation to the South of France this summer

Josie thought she was getting a promotion, but instead her career implodes. She impulsively takes up her roommates' offer to nanny for a little girl on a mega yacht in the South of France. Even though she can't stand boats, this seems like fate giving her an opportunity to lick her wounds in a bucket list paradise while she figures out how to get her life back.


But this little girl she's arrived to look after has a daddy. A widowed, hot, young, billionaire of a daddy. A man who is both France's economic king and their tragic broken prince. He's the French paparazzi's dream fodder. And if there's anything that Josie needs less than having to be stuck on a yacht, no matter how luxurious, it's an inconvenient and highly-combustible attraction to her new boss. A man who, for all his wealth, is grumpy, conceited, and utterly closed off. Basically the complete opposite of the careless playboy that people think he is. And most of all he's wary and untrusting of her, this American girl who's passing herself off as a nanny when she has zero experience.


Xavier Pascale is on an emotional island of his own making. It's just him and his daughter, Dauphine. He likes it that way. He works hard. His shareholders are happy. His best friends are his body guard, and the people who work for him. What's wrong with that? But then he meets Josephine Marin. Her arrival in his life is like an earth tremor along a catastrophic fault line. And now... well, now, he's very, very aware of his isolation and his very human ... need. But He can't be distracted. When he gets distracted terrible things happen.


He should send her home.


He really should.

But what if he just takes what he wants, just this one time ...

This is a standalone, contemporary romance. It includes luscious scenes of sparkling blue ocean, and tantalizing, seductive food, was well as a smoking hot, dirty-talking Frenchman. If traveling scares you, or sexy times scare you, then this book is not for you. But if you're looking for a decadent armchair vacation after being stuck in one place for over a year--that will make you laugh, swoon, and cry--then this one is for you!





Josie + Xavier.
 
Two days ago Josie was happily living in a little historic apartment in Charleston, South Carolina with her two best friends. She was about to be promoted at her architecture firm and life was about to be even better.
Today, Josie is on her way to the South of France, to be the summer Nanny on a yacht for ten year old Dauphine. The daugher of widowed billionaire businessman Xavier.

Josie is not a Nanny. She forgot almost all of her highschool french. And she hates boats!

LET THE FUN TIMES BEGIN ...


ADORABLE!

I just love Nanny & Single Dad romances. And it's even better when the dad is super hot and mega rich! Plus we travel to France, we live on a yacht. Oy. I so wanted to swap places with Josie!
We get to see so many amazing places.
We eat so much amazing food!
Ugh! I felt like I was right there with them.

This was such a beautiful love story.
I was about to say vacation love story. But it's not really a vacation for Josie - she's working as a nanny. But still. It really is a vacation love story. It's all so sunny and beachy and oceany and just beautiful.
We have a great supporting cast - the friends and especially the little girl - they sometimes get on my nerves so much - not this time! Dauphine was super adorable!
Of course we have our troubled moments too.
Xavier is a widower. He also has some business rivals. Bad guys that are after his inventions and money.
Plus Josie's just-lost job in Charleston and her unsecure professional future.
And of course the never-ever-fall-for-your-boss thing! LOL!

The book is pretty long. Which I loved. There was nothing that I would cut - which is something I normally want to do with too long books. But this was all so very readable! I just loved it.

I would not mind seeing this on Netflix one day. With all the sightseeing and eating and sexy hot guys! GIMME!

Oh, a tiny thing that I didn't like. Don't worry, it's just me and my weirdness. The cover is beautiful - super summery and pretty and the colors are so perfect, but I just hate feet. HATE them. I don't want to look at them. I love the nail polish color but the rest. Ugh. I don't do feet. They're disgusting  - just like noses! Ew.
OKAY - rant over! No offense to all you feet fetish people out there, but nope - I can't look at feet.

I could write so much more - but it would ruin your reading pleasure! READ THIS BOOK! Read it. See it. Smell it. Taste it. Feel it. Enjoy it!
 
BROKEN FRENCH was such a beautiful + summery + oceany + foody + travely + emotional + sexy love story. I absolutely adored everything about it!
