Collector's and Library Edition titles are packaged in durable vinyl binding that will ensure lasting value and protection for your audiobook. So whether you use it once or loan it out to a friend, you need not worry about rips, tears, or accidental drops. ;; Lizzie Nichols is back, pounding the New York City pavement and looking for a job, a place to live, and her proper place in the universe. When "Summer Fling" Luke uses the L word (Living Together), Lizzie is only too happy to give up her plan of being postgrad roomies with best friend, Shari, in exchange for cohabitation with the love of her life in his mother's Fifth Avenue pied-à-terre. But Lizzie's not as lucky in her employment search. As Shari finds the perfect job, Lizzie struggles through one humiliating interview after another, being judged overqualified for the jobs in her chosen field-vintage-gown rehab-and underqualified for everything else. It's Shari's boyfriend Chaz to the rescue when he recommends Lizzie for a receptionist's position at his father's posh law firm. The nonpaying gig at a local wedding-gown shop Lizzie manages to land all on her own. But Lizzie's notoriously big mouth begins to get her into trouble at work and at home almost at once-first at the law firm, where she becomes too chummy with a New York society bride, and then at home, when she brings up the M word (Marriage). Soon Lizzie finds herself jobless as well as homeless all over again. Can Lizzie save herself and find career security (not to mention a mutually satisfying committed relationship) at last?

I can barely remember what goes on in Lizzie's romantic life in this one, but again, the fun is in her life: her career, and her friends, and her family.Library copy
Definitely an improvement from the first one and with that ending now I HAVE to read the third one. Luke needs to go back to France and stay there! Go Chaz!!!
The first part of this book dragged. Once Jill entered the picture, things picked up.Lizzie was annoying at first, but she ended up wearing on me. I really started to side with Lizzie when Shari was being so negative toward Lizzie about Luke. Ugh!I really liked how Lizzie kept a positive attitude ab...

I definitely liked this book so much better than the first. I think its a great quick read for a chick-lit book and its not deep or anything. Obviously this book isn't really realistic and the heroine tended to overreact a bit. Yet, she did have her good moments.
