Two Brothers in Brittany
Paul and Lucas had grown up together on a cider-apple farm alongside the river Rance in Brittany.
Paul was the elder, short, frail and cerebral. He wasn't strong enough for a career on the farm. So his younger brother Lucas joined their father on the farm, and Paul aimed for a career in business. But he didn’t pick the right path or get the right qualifications. When he finally obtained the position he wanted, he had a lot to learn to make a success of it.
In contrast Lucas was tall and fit with a preference for the outdoors and farming, a shrewd operator but one who couldn’t see how to ensure a future for himself or the farm.
But then the two brothers both fell in love with the same woman.
Strangely, that was what was needed to jolt both brother's futures into their full potential.
Opportunities in Brittany
Felix is educated, wealthy and a success in two different professions. So he should have known better than to offer assistance to a woman attempting to cross a frontier on a false passport. But he did that nevertheless.
Helping Eleanor, and then helping her best friend Yasmin to join her, changed Felix's life in ways he hadn’t foreseen. It forced him to contact relatives he’d previously avoided. It pushed him into a marriage of convenience. It set him up for a physical attack by a stranger.
But there was no downside for Eleanor or Yasmin, who found in Brittany the friends and they support they needed for their career ambitions and their future happiness.
Could Félix do the same?
Coming Home to Brittany
Three sisters and a brother have nothing in common except a father only interested in himself. They are scattered across the globe, in New Orleans, in Belgium, in Paris, in Singapore, but one by one, for different reasons, with different hopes, they and their children arrive in Brittany.
Holly from Louisiana arrives first, but in finding her Breton cousins repairs a damaged life. That allows her parents the satisfaction of discovering their own Breton roots.
Maël from Singapore finds that in Brittany his work is valued, his ambition supported and his business success assured.
But Lizig from Belgium becomes involved with criminals and Gaëlle in Paris steadfastly resists all overtures from Brittany until her children make friends with their cousins and draw her in.
Then a fleeting connection made months before offers Holly lasting happiness.
