For ages, it seems, advice columnist Annabelle Swift has loved Derek Knightly, editor-owner of the London Weekly, from a distance. Determined to finally attract her boss's attention, she seeks advice from her loyal readers, who offer Annabelle myriad suggestions, from lower-cut bodices (success ) and sultry gazes (disaster ) to a surprise midnight rendezvous (wicked ).

For some inexplicable reason, the thought of her with another man makes Knightly insanely jealous.
