Things aren't pretty for Emerson Watts.
Em was sure there couldn't be anything worse than being a brainiac in the body of a teenaged supermodel.
But it turned out she was wrong. Because that supermodel could turn out to have a mother who's gone mysteriously missing, a brother who's shown up on her doorstep demanding answers, a former best friend who's intent on destroying Stark Enterprises to avenge the death of his lost love, and a British heartthrob who's written a song about her that's topping the charts.
How can Em balance all that with school, runway shows, and weekend jaunts to St. Johns — especially when she's got ex-boyfriends crawling out of the woodwork who want more than just a photo op; a sister who is headed to the high school cheer leading championships; a company she represents that seems to be turning to the dark side...
Not to mention trying to convince the love of her life that models aren't really airheads after all...especially one model in particular.
But then, nobody said it was going to be easy being Nikki.
REVIEW:
I think that blurb was enough to tell you what all is there in the book :p
This book was so much more enjoyable than the first one with loads of suspense and discoveries and a horrible cliffhanger. Meg Cabot has done an amazing job of delivering a mix and match of a story along with humor. I am saying story because some of her other books completely lacked it.
Em's fun. I feel that she as done a good job of 'Being both Nikki and Em' and she is so funny.I enjoy reading the pov of sarcastic protagonists who have a stand and Em definitely falls into that category. I also liked the way her relationship with people from Nikki's past progressed, especially Lulu. Lulu has got to be the most adorable character in the series. Nikki's brother Steven, another new entry in the series, is amazing too. The stereotype that there is just something about men in uniform must be true. Other characters too, like Gabriel, Frida, Felix have a personality of their own which makes them attractive, novel and quirky.
Now i'll come to Christopher. That scene when Em finds her old photo in his room was so emotional and the conviction with which he waned to avenge Em's death was so romantic. Too bad Em had to die for revelation of his other side. His character has really grown and changed. He either is good at guessing or was born very smart. Yeah Chris, take Stark down! They deserve it...
