Book Summary
A witty, winning escapade through the south of France from the internationally bestselling author of Gossip Hound.
The only intrepid reporter in her hometown hamlet, Kate
Clegg has dreams of parlaying her dead-end job at the
Mercury, or Mockery, as it is affectionately known, into an
award-winning career with the most celebrated papers in
London. But things seem to be going in the toilet,
literally, since her biggest break thus far has been
investigating a drainage disaster at the local high school.
At least things can't get worse...
That is until
shady billionaire Peter Hardstone pulls up outside the
Mercury's tiny storefront office in his gold Ferrari and
begins firing the staff. Soon enough, Kate herself decides
that leaving the Mockery behind may just be the best career
move she'll ever make-until Hardstone's wildly attractive
son, Nat, takes up residence at the Mercury's office with an
offer Kate cannot refuse-a chance to cover the Cannes Film
Festival on the luxurious Côte d'Azur.
With
internationally acclaimed author Wendy Holden's signature
verve, intelligence, and originality, Azur Like It is
a rollicking ride through the parties, haute couture, and
glamour of the French Riviera where, behind the glitz, lies
a mystery that would make even the most jaded journalist
salivate.
