Reviews
[She] deftly handles her involved plot, skillfully exploring the different family dynamics; her thoughtful tone and light touch makes this a delightful read
If you liked Chocolat by Joanne Harris, you'll love FOREIGN FRUIT . . . blissful, romantic reading.
Moyes evokes the strictures of time beautifully, as well as the enervating charms of a sleepy resort.
A novel that irrevocably throbs with romance, intrigue and betrayal.
