Hilarious and warmhearted, this “deliciously addictive” (Cosmopolitan) romantic comedy stars a woman who goes from doormat to diva when she sets up shop as the ultimate freelance girlfriend.

Melissa Romney-Jones can bake a perfect sponge cake, type her little heart out, and plan a party blindfolded. But none of that has helped her get far in life or in love. When she gets fired—not for the first time—she decides to market her impeccable social skills to single men.

To avoid embarrassing her father, a Member of Parliament, Melissa dons a blond wig and creates an alter ego named Honey, a no-nonsense bombshell who helps clueless bachelors shop, entertain, and navigate social minefields. She even attends parties if a client needs a “date.”

Melissa manages to keep her secret business as Honey separate from her home life, but when a dashing American starts to request Honey’s services on a regular basis, it’s only a matter of time before Honey’s and Melissa’s worlds collide.
