Cassandra French's Finishing School follows Cassie, a 23-year-old overachieving publicist who can't find a guy ready for a mature relationship. After a disastrous one night stand, Cassie takes matters into her own hands when she knocks the unsuspecting guy, Owen, unconscious and decides that the only way to turn things around is to set up a finishing school in her basement to try and teach him how to become a better man.
