The Provence Cure for the Brokenhearted by Bridget Asher
Brokenhearted and still mourning the loss of her husband, Heidi travels with Abbott, her obsessive-compulsive seven-year-old son, and Charlotte, her jaded sixteen-year-old niece, to the small village of Puyloubier in the south of France, where a crumbling stone house may be responsible for mending hearts since before World War II.
There, Charlotte confesses a shocking secret, and Heidi learns the truth about her mother’s “lost summer” when Heidi was a child. As three generations collide with one another, with the neighbor who seems to know all of their family skeletons, and with an enigmatic Frenchman, Heidi, Charlotte, and Abbot journey through love, loss, and healing amid the vineyards, warm winds and delicious food of Provence. Can the magic of the house heal Heidi’s heart, too? (via Random House)

I `d love to read this book! And what a beautiful cover it has!
This looks like my perfect "escape" this summer! Plus, the protagonist is named Heidi, so how could I not? Thanks for sharing, Fi... drat, I would have loved one of those sweet bookmarks for this one, too. :( Plan to paint anymore?
