"It''s 2 a.m. and I''m wide awake, counting the days and hours until my plane leaves for Paris--3 days and 16 hours,  to be exact.  But ready or not, it''s bonne journee for me.  Croissant anyone?"
When twenty-something Rachel Spencer needed a change of pace from her corporate job, she traded in her power suit and stilettos for blue jeans and flip flops, said au revoir to Houston, Texas, and bonjour to a summer in Paris. Little did Rachel know she was about to take on her most challenging job yet: nannying three rambunctious children, ages 14, 11, and 7.
With razor sharp wit and heartfelt humor Rachel chronicles her hilarious adventures--and misadventures--as she works to master her new job, learn a new language, and find her place among a family of strangers:
 

   • First Day Faux Pas--Determined to make an entrance her first day on the job, Rachel winds up tumbling down the foyer steps in a short black dress--and baring all to the children! 
 
   • The Nanny Book--A  small leather-bound book written in Franglais (English and French)--detailing Rachel''s daily nannying duties.
 
   • Dressed to Impress--Despite dreams of capturing the tres chic French style, Rachel learns that  strappy sandals and nannying don''t always mix.
 
   • Teen Troubles--When Rachel catches Diane, who is 14 going on 21, mixing rum and boys into her leisure time, she discovers there is a fine line between "nanny" and "friend"
 
   • Country Living--During a trip to the French countryside, Rachel learns that French Country is much more than a china pattern!
 
   • Where the Heart Is--By the end of her stay, Rachel realizes the answers she was searching for all along weren''t in Houston or in Paris--they were in her heart.

A hilarious real-life tale, Au Paris is a story of self-discovery, independence, and following your heart at all costs.
