As a bored, moody teenager, Emma Beddington came across a copy of French ELLE in the library of her austere Yorkshire school. As she turned the pages, full of philosophy, sex and lipstick, she realized that her life had one purpose only: she needed to be French. And so she did a French exchange - albeit in Casablanca; and she studied French history at university, spending the holidays in France with her French boyfriend. Eventually, after a family tragedy, she found herself living in Paris with the same French boyfriend and two half-French children. Her dream had come true - but would reality match up? Gradually Emma realized that she might have found Paris, but what she really needed to find was home...
