He was twenty-seven years old, had three platinum rap albums and an always-intricate blond undercut, and was a complete and total drama queen. Trevor James was Weaver-Girard's biggest client, on both sides. "I don't know what I was thinking, I just panicked." Harper, my best friend, cubicle mate, and ally in perpetual fear of Joanna, was at my side, taking the now-soggy cup from my hand and throwing it into the garbage bin next to reception. When I looked up, ready to receive the scolding of a lifetime, I finally realized that Joanna's office was dark, and she was nowhere to be seen. " Shit," I hissed, wiping my hand on my dress. As I came to a screeching stop outside her massive, glass-windowed office, a spray of hot coffee leapt from the cup onto the back of my hand. Joanna (the Girard of Weaver-Girard, and the head of the firm's music division) likes me to be in the office, her coffee in hand (black, no milk and obviously no sugar) by 8:55.
I was already fifteen minutes late getting off the R train, and despite a masterful sprint through Union Square-dodging old men playing chess, and shoppers comparing artisan cheeses at the farmers market, all while wearing a black shift dress and heeled sandals that smacked loudly against the street with each step-I still didn't walk through the door of Weaver-Girard Public Relations until 9:13. With a razor-sharp voice full of wry humor, Public Relations is a fun-filled glimpse behind the curtain of the PR machines that create our favorite celebrities. But do late night texts and impromptu burrito binges mean he feels the same? In the end, Rose will have to decide whether to let her fantasy crush go, or to risk her reputation to be with the charming, handsome, scoundrel-y but sweet pop star she’s grown to love. He’ll do it, but only if Rose becomes his publicist.Īs the faux-mance between Archie and Raya begins to rehabilitate Archie’s faltering career, Rose finds his herself having unexpected, inconvenient and definitely unprofessional feelings for the crooner.
The meeting is going badly until Rose suggests a staged romance with up-and-coming, young indie star Raya. Young PR star Rose Reed is thrown into the big leagues when her boss leaves town the day of the firm’s meeting with Archie Fox, a young, hot, internationally famous British singer-songwriter. A smart and charming romantic comedy about a popstar and the publicist pulling his strings that Kirkus calls a “Cinderella for the modern age.”
