Adrift and lonely, Lily Greene travels to Provence to spend the summer with her aunt in the sunny south of France. In the vibrant city of Avignon, she meets Ludo and Auguste, two expert fencers who are also local actors performing in the upcoming Festival of Theater where they will present the classical tragedy, Cyrano de Bergerac.
When Lily joins their thespian troupe, portraying the lead female role, she discovers that real life mirrors the play they are rehearsing, for--just as Cyrano and Christian vie for Roxane-- Ludo and Auguste become intense rivals for Lily.
Handsome as a Hollywood movie star, Auguste is used to women falling into his bed. But when Lily spurns his amorous advances, drawn instead to the enigmatic Ludo, jealousy drives Auguste to seek revenge.
Will tragedy strike with a cruel twist of fate? Or will love triumph with Amour in Avignon?

My Review - 4 1/2 of 5 stars -
4 1/2 stars. A quick read full of passion, jealousy, and love. Lily was trying to figure out her life and visited Avignon and her aunt. There were instant sparks when she met Ludo with some competition coming from his friend. Their story paralleled the play that they participated in, Cyrano de Bergerac, with two friends who wanted the same woman, balcony scenes, and sword fighting. Ludo was a little unsure of himself and his attractiveness, but he still risked his heart with Lily. The love scenes were scorching, and the support of family was very heartwarming. A wonderful story.
I received a copy through Goddess Fish Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.
