About the Book

This love story is about a 19-year old young girl and her newly discovered passion, bursting out into full-blown romances set in New York City, in 1911. Her page-turning diary opens with a secret uninhibited "crush" on her female French teacher Marie-Yvonne, her spiritual mentor who woke her to her French heritage and the âme soeurs--soul sisters--feelings of her heart, then records her secret affair with the infamous Henry "Valentine" Miller, destined to become America's illustrious writer and author of Tropic of Cancer. Their world views collide in her diary! It is an iconic search for liberation, a timeless tale of women's rights and her free-spirited self-discovery. Their social mores, Henry's antiquated and Aimée's enlightened views on women's rights, suffrage and abortion, dress for success philosophy, and yes, Love, as it happened, are all faithfully recorded. Her Henry Miller will be seen as a truly-gifted and intellectually-thirsty young man with an appetite for pretty and smart young ladies. She and he were protégées. She wrote, "I was the lady of his youth who educated him beyond his wildest dreams!" If you love to watch a chick-flick movie or read a chick-lit novel, then you will resonate with reading Aimée's Secret, a passionate romance as told by the endearing and self-absorbed heroine diarist in a sympathetic and powerful tale. Fresh from confinement of Convent life, she lives with her mother in the Bronx and attends Normal college east of Central Park during the heyday of strolling in long dresses and parasols. Her story is fraught with emotional roller-coaster relationships, from fits and bouts of loneliness to heady heights filled with joy, and an upbeat happy ending. Love and lockets, candles and flowers, décolletage and French haute couture, make this a must read at Valentine's Day. When she discovers her youthful body, her mother watches her like a hawk but to no avail, as Aimée strives to understand the world around her, with a surprise ending in celebration of her womanhood. She shares her secret diary she'd kept locked in her heart for years. So, bring your dictionnaire française along for an absolute romp and sweet delight any Henry Miller fan will find delicious, funny, and hopefully entertaining.
