Little Red Devils

This story is about a journey in life, the life of a middle-class English woman called Josette Bennett, who is taken a long way out of her comfort zone. She has learned to work hard, and trusts nobody but herself ...until now. Although she runs her own business, a language school for foreign children with centres in different parts of the UK, she is not rich. She lives in her lovely house on her own, and has always had to fend for herself. She is totally focused on her business, working long hours. She has had men in her life, but nobody who every really set her on fire. Each year is spent in planning lessons, and travelling, mostly in France, from one company to another, to secure contracts from large companies. In January of each year, there were the seminars, moving from one part of the country to the other, holding meetings and answering questions. If truth be told, she was becoming to feel very jaded. She had been doing this now for 30 years, and although the youngsters were very enthusiastic in the earlier years, nowadays all they wanted to do was to come to England to fool around. They didn't want to learn English! All her visits to France were in the cold Winter months. In the story, it is January. On a whim, she decides to go to Paris on the train, as it was nearly her birthday, and she deserved a few days off. She knew the journey up to Paris would be long, but she would be able to watch the beautiful scenery and relax. She boards the train in Pau, and sometime later, the train crashes. The carriage is plunged into darkness, and partially topples over. Passengers from parts of the train behind her, fight to get into the carriage to rescue as many people as they can. In this dark awful place, as she is shuffling backwards on her knees, she looks over her shoulder, to be met by the most piercing blue eyes she has ever seen, and at that moment, she falls hopelessly, helplessly in love. From that day forward, her life becomes entwined with that of Maximillian, the Duc de Beauchamp, a billionaire who has his own pharmaceutical company based in Marseille, but who lives in Monaco. When they go their separate ways, they are unable to concentrate on their own work, as they are each obsessed with the other. In a very short space of time, she blindly goes to live with Max and eventually marries him. She is introduced to a life of luxury she could never have hoped for or imagined. Max has a beautiful home, a wonderful yacht, a plane, and helicopter. He also owns properties in Paris, Megeve, and other countries as investments. Although their life is fraught with accidents and attempts on their lives, bombs planted on their yacht and at the laboratory, they are protected by security officers, who are with them every inch of the way. Each of them is abducted by two of the shadowy people in the background of Max's life. However, they love one another deeply, and nothing can keep them apart. They are soul mates destined to be together forever. Who knows what lies ahead for them in their lives?Novel written by Felice Dupont Email: [email protected]
