One year and one arduous home-renovation into their marriage, Ken and Bing head to the French countryside to celebrate their long-delayed honeymoon, swearing they’re getting out of the home-fixing business for good. When they fall in love with the village of La Montagne Noire, they find themselves buying a five hundred year old “fixer-upper” and starting all over again -- this time, in French! Ken recounts their mishaps and misadventures with humor, capturing the essence of French village life, the awkwardness of being foreigners in a close-knit town, the couple’s hilarious linguistic pratfalls, and how the mammoth undertaking that threatened to tear their new marriage apart ultimately brings them closer together and helps them find a place in the community they have grown to love.
