Is she sexy? Confident? Always got something clever to say? That woman you creepily stalk on Facebook, and then feel bad about your sad, sad life afterwards? Unfortunately for Melanie, she's the one sitting at home getting biscuit crumbs on the computer. That is, until her filthy rich hunk of a friend Fitzgerald enlists her help to dupe his repressed parents into thinking they are a couple, and spend a week at their country mansion to prove it. Sometimes in life, it doesn't matter if your pretend fiance is quite obviously gay and is never going to suddenly find you attractive. This is Melanie's chance to live the Jane Austen novel for real, and she's going to grab it by the balls and never let go.
