Mein Liebling, der Tyrann (1997)
Wild entschlossen, ihren Weg zu gehen, bekommt Joy Miller die Chance, als Hauslehrerin in einem Land zu arbeiten, in dem die Zeit still gestanden zu haben scheint. In Slovetzia soll sie die drei Kinder des gefühlskalten, verwitweten Diktators Boris Pochenko unterrichten. Während Joy jedoch denkt, man hätte sie als Kosmetikerin eingestellt, ist Boris der Überzeugung, dass er eine kluge und gebildete Lehrerin der Naturwissenschaften vor sich hat. Aber die einzige Wissenschaft, auf die sich Joy versteht, ist die "Chemie". Denn die stimmt sofort zwischen ihr und den einst starren und traditionsverhafteten Bürgern von Slovetzia. Ob es ihr auch gelingen wird, Pochenkos steinernes Herz zu erweichen?
