Little Lady, Big Apple by Hester Browne
Melissa Romney-Jones went from doormat to diva when she donned a blond wig, became Honey, a no-nonsense bombshell, and set up shop providing London’s most clueless men with all the basic girlfriend services — except, of course, for sex and laundry! Now, her business is booming, but when her flat-mate decides to renovate, she has to temporarily find a new place to live. Then Melissa’s dashing American boyfriend (and former client) Jonathan Riley gets a promotion that takes him to New York. There’s only one solution: an extended holiday for Melissa in the Big Apple.
Entrusting care of the Little Lady Agency to her tactless best friend and her melodramatic sister, Melissa crosses the pond and finds herself out of her depth among Jonathan’s hard-charging friends and his interfering ex-wife. Although Jonathan works all the time, he asks Melissa not to take on any new clients while she’s in his hometown. But when she’s presented with a tempting new challenge, Melissa decides to put her expertise to use. Then her project lands her in the tabloids, which sets off a hilarious and heartbreaking chain of events that could force her to choose between the man she loves and the unique business into which she has poured her heart and soul.
Irresistibly funny and full of the magic of New York, Little Lady, Big Apple is another triumph that will have you rooting for Melissa all the way!

I just finished this book so thought I better write my review while it’s still fresh in my memory. I enjoyed the book, although the end kind of surprised me. I seriously thought Melissa would end up with her flatmate, Nelson. I wouldn’t recommend this book if you’ve just been dumped, as it’ll make you depressed wanting to be Honey. But if you’re already in a happy relationship, then go for it. Good read.

My friend told me this was one of the better books she had read in a long time, I have it on my bookshelf right now so I am tempted to pick it up and read it immediately, the summary sounds great.

Sounds good! I’m into the British/American thing right now. I watch more BBC online and BBC America than American TV now. (what little I watch) Can’t miss Dr. Who…. anyway, sounds like a good book!
