Publisher's Summary:
Charming, quirky, and funny, this oh-so-relatable novel from the bestselling author of Out of Sorts shines a light on the always-complicated je ne sais quoi of every family's relationship.
As Martine and Jacques Le Guennec prepare for their annual family Christmas dinner, Martine reminds her husband to be on his best behavior. Their son Nicolas is bringing his girlfriend, Jeanne, to their home for the first time, and she doesn't want Jacques to scare this one off.
Jacques has always ruled his roost with patriarchal bravado, and he can't help but verbally antagonize everyone - especially the wives of his sons. Jeanne, a strong-willed woman who grew up without a father, clashes with the curmudgeon, and she worries that her boyfriend might be too much like his father.
It's all starting to make Martine question everything about her relationship with her husband. And, though she makes that perfectly clear to him, the old dog is not anxious to learn new tricks.
When Jeanne saves Jacques's life, he begins to realize it may be time to change his ways if he wants to hold on to his wife and keep the family close. But is it too late?

After that he seems to realize how obnoxious he is and remembers the things that are important in life, which leads to him changing his ways and a happy family. This was a fast read, the characters and story were believable. It was funny at times and tugged at your heart too. You won't be disappointed in this story.

Cute, quick read
***I won this book via the Goodreads Giveaway Program. This has not influenced my review***
I found this book to be entertaining. It's light-hearted and a quick read, good for a holiday or vacation.
The story takes place over a year and tells vignette stories about a large family and their family gatherings. Being part of a large family that has holiday gatherings, I could relate to the tension. There is really nothing like waiting for a certain family member to say the wrong thing or to serve food that doesn't match someone's diet. Those eggshells are depicted in the story as the matriarch tries in vain to encourage the patriarch to change his ways.
The family in the story is financially comfortable, so most of the story elements aren't relatable to all families - who eats foie gras? Certainly the attitudes and frustrations translate well to most people.
Speaking of translation, this book is translated from French to English. It's a bit bumpy in parts, but overall it's decent. My only criticism is flow, but it's entirely possible that there are flow issues in the original French.
Being a quick read, there isn't a deep level of character or storyline development.
