My name is Samantha. I’m twenty-nine years old. I’ve never baked a loaf of bread in my life. I can’t sew on a button. What I do know is how to restructure a corporate finance agreement and save my client thirty million pounds. Samantha is a high-powered lawyer in London. She works all hours, has no home life, and cares only about getting a partnership. She thrives on the pressure and adrenalin. Until one day...she makes a mistake. A mistake so huge it’ll wreck her career. She goes into meltdown, walks right out of the office, gets on the first train she sees, and finds herself in the middle of nowhere. Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she is mistaken for the interviewee housekeeper and finds herself being offered the job. They have no idea they’ve hired a Cambridge-educated lawyer with an IQ of 158 - and Samantha has no idea how to work the oven. Disaster ensues. It’s chaos as Samantha battles with the washing machine ... the ironing board ... and attempts to cook a cordon-bleu dinner... But maybe she’s not as undomestic as she thought. Maybe, with some help, she can fake it? Will her employers ever discover their housekeeper is actually a top-flight lawyer? Will Samantha’s old life ever catch up with her? And if it does... will she want it back? The story of a girl who needs to slow down. To find herself. To fall in love. And to discover what an iron is for...
