French Holiday, an all-new enemies to lovers, forced proximity romantic comedy by Sarah Ready is OUT NOW!
Merry DeLuca has a problem—a big problem. Her sister just married her best friend and the only man she’s ever loved. Her life is rapidly spiraling down the drain and she doesn’t have an escape plan.
So when Merry is offered a three-month holiday living in a romantic castle in the French countryside she leaps at the chance. Merry knows her French holiday will fix everything—there will be mouthwatering pastries, delicious (meaningless) flirtations, and languid strolls through vineyards at sunset. Her holiday will be perfect.
At least, Merry believes that until she arrives and finds Noah Wright—the best man at her sister’s wedding and the worst man she’s ever known—staying in her castle.
Famous travel documentarian by day and arrogant devil by night, Noah refuses to leave the castle. Which means that Merry and Noah are stuck together in France, in a crumbling castle, in a holiday where nothing goes right. Not for Merry and not for Noah.
So they strike a truce—they’ll live as cohabitating friends for three-months, and then they’ll amicably part ways, never to see each other again.
But the thing about friendship? Sometimes secrets are uncovered. Mysteries revealed. Hearts laid bare. And friendship can start to feel a lot like caring. A lot like love. It can even make you wish that the holiday never has to end.

Merry’s life is falling apart. Her job sucks and her best friend that she has been in love with for the past 4 years is marrying her sister. Needing an escape, her Aunt Jupiter sends her to her chateau in France. Three months on a vacation is exactly what Merry needs. Only, those plans are foiled when she arrives and Noah the best man from the wedding, who seems to hate her for no reason has rented that chateau to work on his latest project. Neither wanting to leave, they come up with a truce, co-habitat as friends for the three months.
I absolutely adored this story. Both MC’s have pasts that have shaped and molded who they are. The more time they spend together as friends, the more they start to like each other. The setting, the food, the art, the romance of it all was a superb setting and only enhanced the story along. I truly can’t say enough good things about this novel. I highly recommend – you won’t be disappointed.
