Times are tough in the small town Natalie's spent her life in, and with a heavy heart, she decided to leave her family and her friends behind and jump on the train, all in answer to an intriguing ad she saw in the newspaper. Her new boss, XL92-S (series 2), is old and decrepit and makes clanking, creaking noises in the rare moments she moves out of her chair, but Natalie is hoping that beneath that rusty exterior is a heart of gold or at the very least, a fun sense of humor. In all the books Natalie has read, answering strange newspaper advertisements and leaving everything you know behind and following your heart in general is the very best way to meet a husband and start a proper life, something she feels she desperately needs.
