At Broadmore Natale in London, Harry Mitchell
lectures Izzy Dean on the quality of her latest report; claiming it is flat and
dull unlike her earlier work. She sulks
out of his office, but calms down until his note re the Ice Age triggers her rage
again. Izzy quits.
With plenty of vino Izzy celebrates her freedom
from obnoxious Prince Harry. However,
the next morning she wakes up stunned to find she shares the bed with the
Australian hunk. As amazed and mortified
as Izzy is; Harry is equally astonished but secretly pleased though also
flustered with the turn of the screw (apology to Henry James) their
dysfunctional employer-employee (albeit former) relationship took.
This Flat in Notting Hill contemporary (see Sleeping With The Soldier by Charlotte
Phillips) is a lighthearted romance in which the two
bickering stars take their battle from the boardroom to the bedroom. Although neither protagonist is likable as he
is too formal and she is too easy to enflame, this is a pleasant “love and lust
in the city that never sleeps” gender war.
