"An unlikely love story" -- cover.
Originally published in French 2016 as Le reste de leur vie by Au diable vauvert.
It's difficult to find love in a profession like Ambroise's, even his father despises what he does... And while Manelle, a home-help for the elderly in the same small French town, adores her days spent with her eccentric clients, she too often ends her evenings alone. So when an unusual request from Manelle's favourite client, eighty-two-year-old retired chef-gourmand Samuel, brings the two of them together for an unlikely road-trip to Switzerland, along with Ambroise's cake-loving grandmother, it might just be time for the rest of their lives to begin...
Translated from the French.
