After two failed marriages, she has sworn never to let another man dominate her life. He is grief-stricken after the death of his wife. Nadine and Olivier are totally unprepared for love when their friendship takes a rather surprising turn.

Nadine is Australian born and bred, Olivier is very French, yet despite all their differences and defences, they cannot help finding something special they both want to hold on to. But can their love survive a road trip around France and a lifetime of cultural and emotional baggage?
From France with Love is an endearing yet honest, fiery account of finding love in mid-life. This heart-warming true tale captures a unique cultural experience staying in French households with family and friends and proves that was matters is the journey, not the destinations.

Award-winning journalist Nadine Williams has focused on social issues, women’s issues and gender relationships during her 19 years at Adelaide’s The Advertiser. A mother of three adult children, she has been studying French for six years at the Alliance Francaise d’Adelaide.
