A fading English finishing school is about to get a twenty-first-century makeover thanks to business-savvy Betsy Phillimore. But Betsy may have bitten off more than she can chew for she must first win over the school's snobby headmistress and its handsome but risk-averse treasurer. Returning to London also means facing her own unfinished business, as she crosses paths with her sexy girlhood crush ... and blowing the dust off clues to a lifelong mystery: who were her parents, and why did they abandon her?

A little bit fantasy, a little bit real-life that, in the end, folds into a modern fairytale. I loved [a:Hester Browne 61565 Hester Browne http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1240155658p2/61565.jpg]'s first book [b:The Little Lady Agency 137098 The Little Lady Agency Hester Browne http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172087867s/137098.jpg 982677] though the follow-ups didn't seem to be able to maintain the magic of the first book. [b:The Finishing Touches 4338580 The Finishing Touches Hester Browne http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255889964s/4338580.jpg 4386472] was a chance for [a:Hester Browne 61565 Hester Browne http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1240155658p2/61565.jpg] to cover similar ground in a different way.
