Description

Isabel Bookbinder is a twenty-seven-year-old assistant at the Saturday Mercury newspaper in London. She has a disinterested boyfriend, a mother who loves clothes that match, and a father who always expects her to do better. Although Isabel may spend most of her time measuring newspaper column inches, she's well on her way to becoming a bestselling author. She's already perfected Her Look (cashmere track suit, lots of mascara), is working on her toned size eight figure, and gets up at dawn to work on her novel (well, sort of). She even has a fabulous mentor -- a bestselling but increasingly eccentric author who takes her to glamorous book parties and introduces her to the dreamy literary agent Joe Madison. But when she inadvertently exposes a political sex scandal and her name becomes known for all the wrong reasons, her glamorous double life starts to spin out of control. With her distinctive voice, penchant for getting in sticky situations, and blind confidence in her dream of becoming a famous novelist, Isabel Bookbinder is a heroine that you can't help but root for.

Isabel Bookbinder does not have the life she wants to have. She is an assistant at a newspaper in London, does not make too much money and her father disapproves of her so much she has to lie to make her life seem more glamorous.Then things begin to change. She decides to write a book, so that her father would not disapprove of her so much. Then the secretary to her boss has to go to a funeral and Isabel covers for her.While looking for an article in her bosses computer she finds emails indicating that he was having an affair with an author (and he is the husband of a member of Parliament.) Isabel then sends an email to her friend and thinks nothing more of it.Isabel then meets with some big wig editors and meets a famous author named Kat. Isabel talks to Kat about the book idea she has and Kat takes her name and number and Isabel hopes for the best.Several days later Isabel comes home for her brothers wedding and the next day sees an article in the newspaper exposing the affair of her boss.This leads to Isabel being homeless after breaking up with her boyfriend/landlord Russel and jobless-that is until Kat calls offering her a job.Isabel gets the job as Kat's assistant and while she works for her tries to get a book deal for her novel. What she finds instead is a mystery and a potential love interest.All in all a very good book.
