My Story as an American Au Pair in the Loire Valley (French Illusions Book 1)

"This is an engaging read, all the more because it is true." -Patricia Sands, award-winning author of The Promise of Provence
She told a futile lie. She knew she would be caught.

It's 1979 and twenty-one-year-old Linda needs to learn a language fast in order to fulfill her dream of becoming an international flight attendant.

Broke yet determined, she pushes aside feelings of guilt, pretends to speak French on her application and secures a nanny position for a wealthy family 5,000 miles from home. 

Will Linda be able to redeem herself once she arrives at the Château de Montclair? How will she communicate with the family, especially the children?

As she struggles to adapt to her challenging new environment, Linda signs up and attends language classes at the local university. 
When she encounters, Adam, a handsome young student, her life becomes more complicated - much more complicated.

You'll find this real-life story even more appealing because it's based on Linda's diaries.
