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 oven. 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?

I read the first few pages of The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella (of Shopaholic series fame). It starts with a workaholic lawyer. I had to stop after the first few pages because it was bringing up bad memories of past Overworked Me 😂 I felt my stress levels rising fast!
"Sophie Kinsella is at the top of the chick lit game. Her plots are fast-paced and entertaining, with the perfect amount of realistic neurosis to accompany her quirky heroines."--New York Post
"Perfectly amusing.... The Undomestic Gardner is a genuinely funny, sweet book. Kinsella is a comic whiz who consistently delivers what her readers crave."--Miami Herald
"A lovely romantic comedy." --Washington Post
