"When Katie Brenner is fired from her dream job in advertising in London, she's desperate to get away from her mad boss Demeter, and her crush, Alex, who she thought shared her feelings of adoration but didn't. Seeking refuge, she goes home to her father's farm in Somerset to help make her stepmother's dream of turning their land into a glamping retreat come true. Applying her savvy marketing smarts, Katie masterminds a glamorous upscale resort. But when Demeter shows up unnannounced, with Alex not far behind, Katie is forced to rethink her revenge fantasies and her assumptions about family, love, and office politics and realize how much she may have misjudged everyone--and everything--around her"-- Provided by publisher.

Perfect vacation read submitted by mollykleinman on July 2, 2018, 11:44am This is a perfect English rom-com in book form. I loved the voice of the main character, Katie, the beautifully evoked countryside setting, and the fast-paced and hilarious plot. I highly recommend this book for a bit of summer escapism.

Katie (Cat) is trying to make it in London and gives the impression that she's living a grand life on her Instagram account. She has a boss from hell, Demeter, a tight budget, a terrible commute, and a drive to succeed. Her life is far from the Instagram 'reality' she is posting and she loses her job and returns to the farm far from London to help her father set up his latest scheme - glamping. Despite her Dad's past lack of success the glamping is a success - thanks in no small part to Katie's guidance.
Then her former boss, Demeter, shows up as a glamper - will Katie get her revenge? Definitely read it and find out!
