Full time agent and personal assistant to, Billy Melrose.

Francine Desmond has worked hard to make it in a man's world. She is very materialistic and doesn't have time for anyone she considers beneath her. Abrupt and often rude, she took an instant dislike to Amanda King the moment she met her - to her, Amanda was the embodiment of everything she'd worked hard not to be…housewife, mother…pleasant.

Francine loves men and is often out on the town with some dignatary or another. She and Lee Stetson had an affair just after she was jilted at the altar by her then fiance, John. It soon fizzled out but they remain good friends.

Her ex-fiance, John, has recently come back into her life and they are now seeing each other again. As the years passed, her dislike for Amanda has turned more to tolerance and they could even tentatively be called friends.

Although still not a woman's woman, she has shown her vulnerable side more and more and it's made her a better person and agent - heaven forbid that she'd ever want to live like a 'normal' person though!
