This delightful piece of fluff from chick lit author extraordinaire Sophie Kinsella, writer of the bestselling Shopaholic series, introduces ambitious, driven London lawyer Samantha Sweeting. Samantha's hopes of a partnership at the firm are dashed when she makes a career-torpedoing error. In her shock and horror, she hops onto a train, ending up in front of a country mansion, whose owner believes Samantha to be a prospective housekeeper and hires her! Samantha welcomes the chance to escape her troubles and accepts the job, even though she hasn't a clue how to perform the simplest of household tasks.

this book was ok. Kinsella leaves the reader hanging at the end. For Chick-lit and something lite to read this book fit the bill. some of the ideas seemed a little extreme and far fetched but it was good none the less.

this book had a slow start, but warmed up with the character's charm and story wit. the story seemed to circle around a few too many times, but was still an enjoyable light read

BookLender review by Jalena on 2008-02-25 16:38:05

I ended up throwing the book across the room in disgust. Too far fetched and not believeable, with no character development. Predictable and just not worth the time, and for trashy summer read type book, it could at least give you a real ending.

BookLender review by Shelley on 2010-09-23 22:29:03

I needed something light and one that did not need a lot of intense concentration. This was a perfect choice. It was a cute and very quick read and made me laugh several times. How can Samantha get herself into such messes? I enjoyed it.
