      Kimmy Jones has three loves: cupcakes, gossip magazines and dreaming of getting fit just by owning celeb workouts. When Kimmy's Sensible Boyfriend told her he didn't approve of her longing for the high life or her dream of starting a cupcake company Kimmy thought she could compromise - after all, she did return those five-inch Paris Hilton heels! But asking her to trade in cake-making for a job sorting potatoes is a step too far. So, newly single - and newly homeless - Kimmy needs a dusting of Christmas luck. And, masquerading as a professional house sitter, her new temporary home is the stunning Mistletoe Mansion. Soon she's best buds with glamorous next door golf WAG Melissa, and orders are pouring in for her fabulous Merry Berry cupcakes! The only thorn in her side is handsome handyman Luke, a distraction she definitely doesn't need. And talking of distractions, something very odd is going on at night... Kimmy is finally living the life she's always wanted. But will her glimpse into the glittering lifestyle of the rich and famous be as glamorous as she's always imagined...'

    • "Swapping downstairs for upstairs ... How hard can it be!? Look up the phrase ordinary girl and you'll see a picture of me, Gemma Goodwin - I only look half-decent after applying the entire contents of my make-up bag, and my dating track-record includes a man who treated me to dinner ... at a kebab shop. No joke! The only extraordinary thing about me is that I look EXACTLY like my BFF, Abbey Croxley. Oh, and that for reasons I can't explain, I've agreed to swap identities and pretend be her to star in the TV show about her aristocratic family's country estate, Million Dollar Mansion. So now it's not just my tan I'm faking - it's Kate Middleton style demure hemlines and lady-like manners too. And amongst the hundreds of fusty etiquette rules I'm trying to cram into my head, there are two I really must remember; 1) No-one can ever find out that I'm just Gemma, who'd be more at home in the servants quarters. And 2) There can be absolutely no flirting with Abbey's dishy but buttoned-up cousin, Lord Edward. Aaargh, this is going to be harder than I thought ..."--Provided by publisher

      Někdejší typicky městská mladá žena a úspěšná manažerka v jisté londýnské bance, Pippa Pattinsonová, vychutnává plnými doušky svůj nový, nekomplikovaný vesnický život a kralování ve své vysněné čajovně ve vesničce Taxos po boku svého snoubence Nika. Změna k neuspěchanému, prostému životnímu stylu je však příliš náhlá a rychlá a Pippě začíná vrtata hlavou, jak se tohle všechno vlastně semlelo? Termín její svatby, stanovený na vánoční svátky, se valem blíží. Shodou okolností ji její bývalý přítel Henrik pozve na zásnubní hostinu do Londýna, kde Pippa své předsevzetí začne zpochybňovat a přemítá, jestli svatební zvony, které jí zní v mysli, nebijí spíš na poplach. Náhle zatouží po rušném životě velkoměsta, pohodlí i pravidelné pedikúře. Opravdu se toho všeho dokáže vzdát a stát se manželkou… rybáře? Nehledě na své vzrůstající pochybnosti ohledně svatby si usmyslí vnést do vesničky, která dosud zápolí s dozvuky hospodářské recese, trochu vánočního kouzla a uspořádat vánoční trh. Během příprav, při kterých jí ochotně pomáhají její řečtí přátelé a především Nikovi rodiče, pevně doufá, že se jí včas podaří přijít na to, kde je její pevné místo.
