I just finished The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella. If you follow the Shopaholic series, youll be delighted to know that Kinsella has created another winner. Samantha Sweeting, a overworked lawyer on the verge of making partner, escapes to the country after she fears she made a terrible mistake costing her firm millions.

In the English countryside, she ends up on the door of a stately home where the owner mistakes her as one of the applicants for a housekeeping position. You can see where this is going, right? Samantha is hired despite the fact that she cant clean, cook, or iron even though the owners, Eddie and Trish, believe she has plenty of experience and is trained as a world class chef.

The gardener, Nathaniel, soon realises that Samantha is not who she says and both he and his mother come to her rescue teaching her all the inns and outs as to how to run a household. Not surprisingly, love blossoms between Nathaniel and Samantha further complicating the situation as Samantha will eventually be forced to choose between Nathaniel and her old life as a lawyer.

If you're looking for faults, trust me, they're there. My advice: Dont analyse the book, just accept it for what it isa light and lovely romantic comedy that is sure to make you laugh out loud!
