A Fresh Start Romance with a Grumpy Single Dad

Passport to Provence

by Hannah Leigh

About The Book

When British exchange teacher Lila Bennet is sent to Provence to revive her struggling career, she expects lavender fields, sun‑washed villages, and a chance to prove herself. What she doesn’t expect is Mathieu Laurent — a grumpy French single dad who has spent his life protecting his family’s vineyard and avoiding complications of the heart.
Lila arrives with a plan: get a fresh start, teach her perfectly planned-out lesson plans, and try to stay out of the way. But Provence has a way of softening even the most determined hearts. Between morning markets, winding cobblestone lanes, and the gentle rhythm of small‑town life, she begins to rediscover joy she thought she’d lost.
Mathieu, still healing from his late wife's death, is drawn to Lila’s sincerity and spark. Their connection grows slowly, sweetly — a friendship that deepens into something neither of them expected. Yet Lila’s time in Provence looms to an end, and Mathieu’s roots run deep. Choosing each other would mean changing everything.
As summer unfolds, Lila must decide whether Provence is just another chapter in her life… or the place where she finally belongs.
Passport to Provence is a heartwarming, opposites-attract, wholesome romance about second chances, unexpected love, and finding home where you least expect it.
