ALL EXPENSES PAID (Fact meets Fiction): Granny-sitting in the South of France (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781463714192)

THE ADVERT: Six months in the South of France, looking after elderly English lady while family travels. Separate en-suite accommodation. Must be a driver. Ideally 40+ and non smoker. All expenses paid. ME: Laura Bennett just 40 and been divorced longer than married. No dependents. Lease run out on my rented cottage. Sales job going nowhere. Time for a fresh start. So, I decided to go for it. I mean what could be simpler than looking after an 82 year old English lady? I had visions of gentle strolls to the boulangerie and compulsory siestas. But this was before I met Betty. She looked like everybody's favourite grandmother until Jean- Louis arrived to pick her up on his Kawasaki 1200! Keep an eye on her, her daughter said. I had a job to keep up. "Engaging, fun, unpredictable, fresh, original, silly, and just plain old enjoyable. Cracking idea and neatly executed. All I need is a deck chair and some sun and I'm sorted!"
