Customer Reviews

Someone's going to have a baby!

Billie Winkler and Steven Wakefield are going to have a baby! Billie is pregnant! Elizabeth blows the top off a restauraunt called "Kitty's" I think it's where prostitutes hang out. She gets fired. Billie loses the baby by miscarriage.

Great again

Elizabeth works undercover to blow the top off a sexist restaurant that forces its waitresses to dress like prostitutes.(or popstars..).Meanwhile,someone else is pregnant!!

Excellent book!!

This book was great! Billie and Steven go through hard times, with a surprise ending. Jessica sees her ex-husband, Michael McAllery again, and is determined to prove she can handle anything. Even a new job. Elizabeth works undercover as a waitress for a sleazy night club. I loved this part of the storyline. She had to put up with a lot of perverted guys, but really told them off! The nightclub only allows women with large breasts to waitress it. Elizabeth does some padding and heads on in! It was really cool how she and the other waitresses showed those men a thing or two! This is a great book!

Some great lessons on REALLY growing up...

Jessica has the unfortunate tendency to be flighty and boy-crazy, but with Steven's help gets a job. Hopefully, she'll learn what maturity is and realize the difference between deep love and infatuation. And that Lila...boy, does she learn a lesson when she gets fired from her job that the world does NOT revolve around her just because she's rich! Great job Liz did on exposing the porn business at Kitty's. Also great on how the other women stood behind her. I think Steven ought at be happy for Billie that she has musical talent and not pressure her into law. Sure, she may go away for a while, but REAL love is when you can spend time apart as well as together.

good

Pretty good. Billie is a really good character. But I think she and Steven needed to work things out so much better, though. Oh, and Liz posing as a waitress at that resturant was pretty cool, too.
