Valentine’s Day is a celebration of love in all its forms—the kind that takes us by surprise, challenges our hearts, and asks us to choose courage over fear. It feels like the perfect day to shine a spotlight on a story where passion, rivalry, and romance unfold beneath the golden skies of southern France.


✔️ A sun-drenched romantic escape to Avignon, France

✔️ A classic love triangle inspired by Cyrano de Bergerac

✔️ Handsome rivals, simmering jealousy, and irresistible chemistry

✔️ Perfect for Valentine’s Day and lovers of passionate romance




Check out the blurb:

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?
