The Accidental Diva by Tia Williams
From the author of A Love Song for Ricki Wilde and New York Times bestselling Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick Seven Days in June comes a hot and hilarious borough-crossed love story about a Manhattan beauty editor, a Brooklyn writer, and the attraction that takes them by storm. Billie Burke is smart, endlessly driven, and fabulous--it's no accident she landed a job as the beauty editor at the world's leading fashion magazine. Caught in a whirlwind of long office hours and fashion industry party-hopping, she hasn't had time to focus on her nonexistent love life. Instead, she's been living vicariously through her friends. Then she meets Jay Lane, a gorgeous up-and-coming Brooklyn writer who pretty much knocks her right out of her stilettos. Soon Billie finds herself doing things with Jay in broad daylight that she's never even dared to think about in the privacy of her own head. In no time at all she's absolutely addicted to an affair that's as crazy and seductive as New York itself. But there's a lot she doesn't know about Jay, whose rough past seems determined to start creeping back into their present....

She's the best-selling author of THE ACCIDENTAL DIVA and the IT CHICKS series, and co-writer of Iman's THE BEAUTY OF COLOR. Her blog and books have been featured in The New York Times, Essence, WWD, The Washington Post, Teen Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, and The San Francisco Chronicle.
