The Little Lady Agency In The Big Apple

Hilarious and warmhearted, this "deliciously addictive" (Cosmopolitan) debut 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 -- again -- 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 becomes 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." 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....

Melissa leaves London and her agency, The Little Lady Agency, to join her American boyfriend, Jonathan Riley, for an extended vacation in Manhattan.

Melissa accompanies her boyfriend to New York, where she is intimidated by his sophisticated friends and interfering ex-wife before taking on the task of making over an old friend.

Hester Browne's third sparkling romantic comedy features London's premier freelance girlfriend Melissa Romney-Jones—a.k.a. Honey—whose efforts to turn a playboy prince into a proper gentleman disrupt her own wedding plans. Even though she's busy making plans for her wedding to American fiancé Jonathan Riley, who now runs a prestigious Parisian real estate company, Melissa Romney-Jones—London's premier freelance girlfriend—agrees to do a favor for her beloved grandmother: transform the notorious Prince Nicolas von Helsing-Alexandros into a proper gentleman for the sake of preserving a family inheritance. Even possessive Jonathan agrees it's a great opportunity to make social connections. But taming a prince might prove too big a professional challenge for Melissa when she's confronting so many seismic changes in her own personal life. Jonathan needs her in Paris. Her sister Emery's newborn son needs a christening ceremony, as well as a proper name. Emery herself needs Melissa to protect her from their bulldog nanny who has returned to do much more than babysit. Most unsettling of all, Nelson needs her to find him a new flatmate because she'll be moving out soon. Balancing all this with late-night dinners, polo matches, and a Mediterranean cruise with Prince Nicky, who is as charming as he is exasperating, suddenly has bride-to-be Melissa dreaming of a fairy-tale ending—and not the one she expected!

Entreated by her grandmother to help reform playboy Prince Nicolas, girlfriend-for-hire Melissa is supported in her endeavor by her fiancé, but finds the task more daunting than anticipated when her client changes her romantic perspectives.

Reviled by her snobby family but adored by her friends, unemployed etiquette expert Melissa Romney-Jones reinvents herself as Honey, and goes into business as a matchmaker for inept bachelors.
