She's determined that no man will ever control her destiny. But ruthless financier Will Silk has Pia in his sights, and has other ideas ...Sophie O'Farrell is Pia's hapless, gawky assistant, the girl-next-door to Pia's Prima Donna, always either falling in love with the wrong man or just falling over.
