When life hands her lemons, she makes a French martini.
Life is one big party for event planner Isabel Serranti. Armed with cell and laptop, she's game to field any fete-including her next nearly impossible gig: an impromptu themed party. Five hundred guests? (No problem.) On a country estate? (Lovely!) Near her girlhood home and hosted by her infamous childhood tormentor Simon Monkwell? (Uh-oh. . . .)
Luckily, Simon is away for most of the planning, which leaves Izzy to cope with his kindly, eccentric family and their curious secrets. But when Simon-looking good enough to eat-makes a surprise visit, he's not quite the wretched oaf she remembers. And he needs her help to pull off something daring that requires clever planning, devious imagination, and a lot of panache. Naturally, they'll be working together very, very closely. . . .
"Hilarious and touching."
