A novel by

 
 
"My name is Anita Moreau, I live in a two bedroom apartment in Jersey, just above a Thai restaurant and today is my birthday. I won't tell you how old I am because it's been agreed that we ladies keep things like that a secret.
Everything is ready.
The champagne, the dress. I even bought myself a perfume. It smells like vanilla, like a trip to the tropical islands. And I’m going to spray a little on my bed.
It' s quite an exceptional event. I don't want to miss it. I want my 'big leap' to be a success."

A magnificent love story.
A portrait of an unforgettable woman.
A luminous feel-good novel that leaves you addicted to life.

Anita is angry. She feels cheated. She refuses to be fate's pawn.
And yet, here she is, forced to postpone her big plans because of an unexpected phone call.
Life, full of surprises, plays tricks on even the most methodical.
On the road to Noirmoutier, a beautiful obscure man crosses her path and she discovers that she isn't unaffected by him.
Nevertheless, she refuses this emotional upheaval with all her might.
Anita wants to fight in order to reach her goal and doesn't realize that her plans have changed without her knowledge.
What if existence isn't always as calibrated as a haiku, for worse, but sometimes for better?
