Once Ellie Haskell's life was a fairy tale: an overweight, underpaid interior designer who fell in love with a gorgeous prince, had two adorable children, and lived happily ever after. But four and a half months after the birth of her twins, her bliss has vanished, and the princess has turned into a frog. Desperate to rekindle the magic with her husband, Bentley, Ellie considers an organization called Fully Female, which offers courses in the sensual arts, complete with naughty nighties and Peach Melba Love Rub. However, she remains skeptical—until her housekeeper, lovesick and suicidal, arrives with a gun, leading Ellie to Fully Female. There, she encounters familiar faces, including the stylish Jacqueline Diamond, who is also seeking transformation through Working Women Workouts and Marriage Makeover sessions. As Ellie navigates this new world, she finds her daily life spiraling into chaos, with one would-be siren meeting a grim fate in a bubble bath. With another victim turning up dead, Ellie suspects that more than bad luck is at play. Now, she must devise a plan to catch a crazed killer before love gets a bad name.

At Gossinger Hall, where the chill of centuries lingers, Sir Henry Gossinger has shocked his relatives by announcing a new will that leaves everything to his devoted butler, Hutchins.

His cryptic last words, "God save the Queen," add to the mystery. For Flora, Hutchins' granddaughter, his death is a profound loss.

As she navigates her grief, Flora finds solace in her new life in London and the support of Vivian Gossinger, Sir Henry's nephew. Yet, the dark history of Gossinger Hall, including ongoing tensions with the Royal Family over the tea strainer, looms over her. Flora soon becomes ensnared in a dangerous web of intrigue, where familiar faces may conceal deadly intentions.
