This is a story about a girl called Jane who works for georgeous magazine. She has just been dumped by her tight fisted boyfriend and her carrer is in tatters so you can understand the lack of self asteem she has.
Her editor Josh decides that the magazine's sales need boosting so he enlists the services of Champagne D'Vyne a spoilt rather thick ''IT'' girl who is named after the drink her parents concieved her whilst drinking, to write a social colum for the magazine and Jane's job is to edit and ghost write it for her. It soon becomes clear to Jane that there is not much going on in Champagne's brain as she can't remember where she has been or who she was with but as luck would have it she overhears a conversation on the phone with one of her friends and manages to fill in the gaps. The colum is an instant sucess and Jane is soon poached by Fabulous.
As Champagne flits from famous footballer to rock star to lottery millionare her life becomes very hectic and Jane finds it ittitaing and hard to keep up with her. Champagne comes across as fickle as she hires private jet's on the magazine's account as nothing is to good for her. Jane starts to loathe her as she is getting none of the credit for the colum and Champagne is getting more and more bitchy towards her. Meanwhile Jane's best friend Tally is in a crisis as her ancesteral family home is under threat to be sold as they can't afford the upkeep and unless they find her Lord right they don't see any solution but to sell it. I won't go into the storyline anymore.
I suggest that you read this book and find out what becomes of Champagne's love life and whether Jane get's one, will Jane ever get recognised for her hard work and will Tally save mullions from being reduced to rubble by a trashy rock star who want's to buy it. A very lighthearted and funny read. It will keep you amused for day's Happy reading Jen.
