'The story tells of impoverished Lizzie running out of money in New York but dating a rich Parisian aristocrat.'

Synopsis
When "Summer Fling" Luke uses the L word (Living Together), Lizzie is only too happy to move in with the love of her life in his mother's Fifth Avenue pied-a-terre. But Lizzie's not as lucky in her employment search. As her best friend, Shari, finds the perfect job, Lizzie struggles through one humiliating interview after another, until Shari's boyfriend Chaz lands Lizzie a receptionist's position at his father's posh law firm.The non-paying gig at a local wedding-gown shop Lizzie manages to find all on her own. But Lizzie's notoriously big mouth gets her into trouble almost at once - first at the law firm, where she becomes too chummy with a society bride, and then with Luke when she brings up the M word (Marriage). Soon Lizzie finds herself jobless and homeless all over again. Can Lizzie save herself and find career security (not to mention a committed relationship) at last? 'She is the master of her genre ...the George Bernard Shaw if not the George Eliot of chick lit' - "Publishers Weekly".

Customer Reviews

Wow!
This book is amazing! It has such a cliff-hanger that i can't wait for the next one!

In true Meg Cabot style Lizzie, now living in NY with Luke, goes on a rollarcoaster of a ride when she gets a job at a law firm as a secretary. Many things develop and she ends up learning some home truths.

There's not much you can say without giving a lot of the plot away but if you're looking for something fun, with that extra umph then this is for you.

As the sequel of QUEEN OF BABBLE, the crazy antics of Lizzie Nichols were expected and delivered. There will obviously be another book in this series, because the ending is such a cliff-hanger!

Lizzie now lives in New York and is living with her boyfriend, Luke, and is looking for a job. She finds one but... they don't pay. So what is she going to do for money?

On top of all of her financial issues, Lizzie thinks that there might be something very special in that box under the Christmas tree. But is it what she expects?

Lizzie is such a realistic character and she is so funny and real! So much of what she does can be related to real life.

QUEEN OF BABBLE IN THE BIG CITY is a fun, new, easy read from my favorite author, Meg Cabot.
