Alexandra is such a strong character, she more or less told me her story. She did take me way out of my writing comfort zone, setting a book in France when I couldn’t go there, for a start, but I loved living in her world. She has skills she didn’t know she had and was extremely resourceful. Following on from A Wedding in the Country where three young women, Lizzie, Alexandra and Meg, meet on a cookery course and become firm friends, A Wedding in Provence is Alexandra’s story. A chance meeting in Paris leads to her being employed as a nanny to three French children who live in a chateau in Provence. Their father is absent a lot of the time, and their mother left many years before, so they present her with a bit of a challenge to say the least. However, Alexandra is a capable and resourceful young woman and, despite disapproval from almost everyone she meets, gradually gains the children’s trust. Her relationship with them is the main focus of the story, with the romance almost taking second place. Location, location, location. This can make the difference between a modern or rustic wedding. Think about the wedding of your dreams. Where does the wedding take place? It’s a beach wedding in the South of France or a modern wedding at a well-known hotel venue? For sure the location makes the difference.
