Summary:
American-ophile Nathalie Clairvaux is recently engaged to Pierre, who is a big flirt and self-centered. She wants to vacation in America, so she decides to go on a tour bus to "see the real America." Pierre joins her later on the bus tour, after deciding he thinks he loves her enough to travel America with her.

I would recommend this book!

Why?
Nathalie and Pierre fight and get stranded in Seldom, NB because they miss the tour bus. They both try to make each other jealous with some of the townspeople, Dick and Iona and Nathalie must decide if she really loves Pierre and vice versa. One night there is a lot of confusion and knocking on doors by the couples. The townspeople are fun and quirky, such as the gas station owner who wants to make a great wine, he calls it "Big Red", and asks Pierre for help, since Pierre is a wine expert due to his family's business.
