Winning a contest on a famous talk show? Oh, yes!
A dream design job in the South of France? Ooh-la-la.
Falling for my charming next door neighbor? Oh no!

They say opportunity doesn't knock twice.
Winning a trip to France to live out my dream interior design career wasn't a line item in my day timer.
Neither was dragging my son halfway across the planet in search of a second chance.
Falling hard for the carpenter next door definitely wasn't part of the plan.
He's helpful, charming, kind, capable, and oh so French!
And, something else I can't put my finger on.
I wish I could undo our rocky start when I accidentally attacked him.
I can tell I'm not the only one with some dark history.he's carrying some baggage and has damage of his own to repair.
Now that I'm this famous contest winner and have cameras following me 24/7, all eyes are on us.
The viewers think we would make the perfect couple - I'm not so sure yet.
But in a life full of missed opportunities, maybe love deserves another chance.
