The castle that inspired THE PRINCESS & THE PAGE is Chateau Chenonceau, located in the Loire Valley of France. It’s my favorite castle in the region, and I love the stories of the woman who once lived in there.

I was so excited to return to this castle with my family a few weeks ago with the book in hand. I got to walk the grounds and reminiscence over the locations that events took place in the story like the forest, the well, the dark tower, the kitchen, ballroom, and fireplaces.

I created two videos, one that explains the setting of the story, and another one that just talks about the book. Below I’ve posted pictures for you to look at as well.

Check them out and let me know what you think!
