| Plot Summary of The Frog Prince |
"For Holly Bishop, marrying gorgeous Frenchman Jean Marc is the happiest moment of her entire life. Finally, her entire life is coming together in once nice little package with all the trimmings. When her husband Jean Marc rebuffs her sexually on their honeymoon and tells her that he doesn't love her "in that way", Holly is heartbroken. Holly sinks into a deep depression when Jean Marc announces that he wants a divorce. In order to move forward with her life, Holly moves to San Francisco and takes a job as an event planner at a firm called City Events. Holly's boss is Olivia, a beautiful but cruel perfectionist who berates Holly for her depression, her rapidly expanding figure and her lack of work ethic. As Holly struggles to deal with her own disappointments, her mother's anger over her failed marriage and her conniving colleagues, Holly is forced to stand up for herself and forge a new life for herself."
Sandra Calhoune, Resident Scholar
