The Forgotten Summer: Blog Tour

ByCarol Drinkwater

Dear readers, to celebrate the publication of THE FORGOTTEN SUMMER we’ve organised a blog tour featuring exclusive content on a different blog each day for one week. I hope you enjoy hearing more about my writing process, the people who have inspired me, and of course revealing more of the world of Luc and Jane and indulging your senses in the South of France.

Head to the French Village Diaries blog tomorrow for an exclusive Q&A.
