It’s Holly’s first job interview at a big London finance firm. She can’t help but notice the other interviewee is jaw-droppingly beautiful, wearing a short red party dress... and is sick with nervousness. Holly volunteers to go with her in a taxi to make sure she gets home OK and discovers she lives in a luxury West End apartment that’s been trashed – and that the girl is far from nervous, but has a mega-hangover. She’s arrogant, irritable and ungrateful, but Holly gets her to bed and leaves... a little disgusted if she's honest.
But next day, Natashia turns up in a chauffeur-driven Range Rover at Holly’s parents’ home in a dull suburb and proceeds to astonish and charm her family with her outrageous behaviour until Holly gets home from her part-time job at a supermarket.
The exotic party-girl whisks Holly off to an expensive restaurant as a thank you for ‘being Florence Nightingale’, and so begins Holly’s journey into a world for which she is totally unprepared... not only is it extravagant and excessive, but also ultimately perilous. But as much as Holly resists, this girl is irrepressible and seductive and Holly finds herself... seduced. Not quite in the way she imagined, but it changes everything and life is never the same afterwards.
Love, for the people in this story, is unsuitable and unreasonable. It has to overcome betrayal, long separation and their complicated, contradictory and repulsive actions. But it compels them to keep coming back, helplessly and passionately drawn to each other despite the logic that says it should not happen.
