Workaholic attorney Samantha Sweeting has just done the unthinkable. She's made a mistake so huge, it'll wreck any chance of a partnership.
Going into utter meltdown, she walks out of her London office, gets on a train, and ends up in the middle of nowhere. Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she's mistaken for an interviewee and finds herself being offered a job as housekeeper.
Her employers have no idea they've hired a lawyer - and Samantha has no idea how to work the over. She can't sew on a button, bake a potato, or get the #@%# ironing board to open. How she takes a deep breath and begins to cope - and finds love - is a story as delicious as the bread she learns to bake.
But will her old life ever catch up with her? And if it does...will she want it back?

It's unrealistic but hilarious.

Even though the storyline of this novel is wildly predictable, Sophie Kinsella (the pen name of Madeleine Wickham) knows how to create charming, funny heroines who sustain even the most hackneyed plots. This isn't Kinsella's best work, but it's a light, fun way to pass a few hours.

I love all of Sophie Kinsella's books!! I haven't found one yet that I don't like.
