Summary:
Kat Ellis is looking for the right man. NOW. The position comes with a few
requirements: willingness to travel, keen social skills, good looks, suave
demeanor, sharp mind--and a tux. The qualified candidate should also have the
ability to make ex-boyfriends jealous, to turn heads whenever entering a room
and to reduce any woman within eye-and earshot to a week-kneed, besotted
admirer. Kat wouldn’t be so urgently in need were in not for her spoiled half
sister’s wedding where the best man happens to be Kat’s handsome ex-boyfriend.
What’s worse, the currently single Kat has to schlep all the way from New York
to London, where her wildly dysfunctional family lives. And since the wedding is
happening next week, Kat does what any enterprising single woman would do--she
hires a professional. So what if her solution crosses a few morally dubious
lines plus costs her a tidy six thousand bucks which she’ll have to drain from
her 401K? And so what if her escort happens to be--well, an escort? Lucky for
her that her hiring skills are pitch-perfect and she zeroes in on smooth
heart-stopper Nick Mercer, one of New York’s better known and in-demand
professional male escorts. Once in England, the insightful and charismatic
Nick--part actor/part shrink/part bon vivant--helps Kat navigate the choppy
waters of her screwy family and caddish old flame Jeffrey and convinces everyone
he meets that he and Kate are an item. As Nick charms Kat’s parents, Bunny and
Victor Ellis, her self-absorbed half sister Amy, Amy’s fiancée Edward, as well
as every living, breathing woman within a 100-kilometer radius, Kat too finds
herself feeling things she’s never felt before. For Kat, what begins as merely a
face-saving ruse with a dashing guy-for-hire quickly starts to become more than
she ever expected.
