'Funny, fast and farcical. I loved it' JOJO MOYES The hilarious
romantic comedy from NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING AUTHOR Sophie Kinsella
Samantha thrives under pressure. A high-powered London lawyer, all
she can concentrate on is taking the next step in her career;
eating, sleeping, seeing friends - even taking a breath - will have
to wait. But just when she's about to get everything she has ever
wanted, Samantha makes a mistake. A fifty-million-pound,
career-destroying mistake. Unable to face the consequences, she
does the unimaginable and runs away... Catching the first train she
can, she finds herself in the countryside, outside a beautiful
grand house. Mistaken for another woman, she falls into a new job
as the family's housekeeper. Disaster ensues. In a blink, her life
has shifted from writing briefs to washing them - and she has no
idea how to work the washing machine. Let alone the oven. A former
master of the takeaway menu, she's now expected to whip up fine
cuisine. But gradually, she falls in love with her new life in a
wholly unexpected way. Will her employers ever discover the truth?
Will Samantha's old life ever catch up with her? And if it
does...will she want it back? ***** EVERYBODY LOVES SOPHIE

I consider this to be Kinsella's best book so far.
Samantha, the loveable heroine, lives a very unbalanced life of work, work, work. Then a twist of fate finds her flung into a different world, completely new and far beyond her comfort zone. This hilarious (laugh out loud - seriously!), witty and romantic romp sees her explore the aspects of herself she had ignored thusfar and to rise to challenges she had previously avoided.
The ending is as wonderful as we've come to expect from Kinsella. Its a fabulous read, don't miss it!
