Their romance? Not planned, not allowed, and not resistible.\u003cp\u003eTwo years ago, Jamie Henry went on a pilgrimage that changed his life: the Camino de Santiago, in Portugal and Spain. He thought that on that hike, he would reconnect with his ex-fiancé, Elliott, but ended up realizing that happiness couldn't come from choosing, or being chosen by, another person.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow, Jamie works as a high school English and French teacher in New Orleans. He loves his new life; he just hasn't found someone to share it with.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEthan Kenworthy's life hasn't gone according to his plan, but he's certainly not complaining. He's gotten the best gift life could offer him: his stepdaughter Chloe, whom he loves like his own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Ethan agrees to fill in as a last-minute chaperone on the senior trip Jamie is leading to France, the two men find themselves thrown together in an unexpected connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBetween wrangling teenagers, trying not to lose passports, and teaching meaningful lessons about French history and modern politics, Jamie and Ethan find themselves increasingly drawn to each other.

But some things, as problematic as they are, as foreign as they might seem, might just be right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kent Holland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798296390783\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/03\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 178\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.41d","brand":"Kent Holland","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47637442199807,"sku":"9798296390783","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1ee5070f-dbed-4f86-aaf3-ec9e63e566ae.jpg?v=1765116252","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/foreign-tongue-kent-holland-9798296390783","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
