Book description
The witty, sexy sequel to Tracy Quan's bestselling 'Diary of a
Manhattan Call Girl'.
Like everyone, Nancy finds that as life goes on, she has to adapt. She's
learning to hone her respectable image as the wife of investment banker
Matt, cooking fashionable meals and taking his shirts to the cleaners,
while turning a few tricks on the side. Volume is down, but the sex is
kinkier. And she finds herself pulled into the discreet subculture of
the married call girl. Some women's husband's know what they do, some
don't, and some 'know, but don't know.' Nancy's is in the dark, although
her best friend Allison's increasing presence in the media spotlight
threatens to expose Nancy's secret. Meanwhile, Matt wants a baby, but
Nancy isn't so sure. Motherhood could end her career for good - and what
will it do to her body?
Will Nancy have to give up her career to save her marriage? What if she
becomes the frumpy wife her clients often come to her to escape? Fans of
Quan's first Nancy Chan novel, readers of Candace Bushnell's '4
Blondes', and anyone who enjoys a walk on the wild side will love this
revealing romp. Reviews for 'Diary of a Manhattan Call Girl':
'Bridget Jones with attitude.' Guardian
'Fun to read…marks the transition of erotica from hide-it-under-the-bed
to read-it-on-the-tube…Her sex scenes are delightful.' The Times
'New York's latest literary sensation.' Independent
'Frank, fizzy, and not for the faint-hearted.' YOU Magazine, Mail on Sunday
'Chock-full of bad-girl secrets…tantalizing.' Cosmopolitan
'If you want a sassy read about a sparky New Yorker trying to juggle her
professional and private life, then you'll love this…A startling debut
that's a cross between “Bridget Jones's Diary” and “Pretty Woman”…You
can forget the anonymously-written “Belle Du Jour”, that rather
limp-wristed, supposedly true account of the working life of an upmarket
London prostitute which was published to huge fanfare earlier this year.
“The Diary Of A Manhattan Call Girl” is not only 10 times funnier, it
actually has a storyline.' Daily Mirror
