to do except to take her dog, Millington, out for a walk, exchange stories with
her best friend Penelope, read Harlequin novels, spend time with her Uncle Will
and his partner Simon and explore the city by herself. Although she enjoyed
being a bum, she needs to come to her senses soon, primarily because her
savings are dwindling, FAST!

turn of events however, she is suddenly thrown into the dizzying world of PR,
in all its scandals, mysteries and seemingly never ending cash flow. Seems

party all night and get to know all the right people. Find out how Bette
handles her new and exciting life and get inebriated by its plots, twists and
turns. You surely would want to be in Bette’s shoes. Or would you?
