Angela Temple is a best-selling 'bonk-buster' writer beloved by her readers for her raunchy, bodice-ripping historical romances. To her adoring public, she's demure, chaste and respectable – but in reality, she's a much-married, chain-smoking, heavy-drinking hedonist who treats her staff like dirt. Her long-suffering housekeeper, Mrs Partridge, is used to the abuse, but when her agent's son, Conrad Bone, becomes her new personal assistant, he soon finds that life with Angela isn't exactly a bowl of cherries.
