โฆ Synopsis
**Amber Green is back! The sequel to Rosie Nixonโs fun-filled debut follows Amber as she tries to see if she has what it takes to be a stylist in the fashion capital of the world: New York City.
**
Sheโll take a bite out of the Big Appleโs fashion sceneโif it doesnโt eat her alive first... London stylist Amber Green has rebounded nicely since escaping the clutches of a Hollywood boss from hell. Sheโs got a dream job designing windows for Selfridgeโs and her dream man in sweetly sexy boyfriend, Rob. In short, Amber loves her life and wouldnโt change a thing. But when Rob is hired to produce a reality series about the iconic Angel Wear lingerie fashion show, he breaks the news that heโs moving to New Yorkโฆand invites Amber along on the adventure. Ensconced in a Williamsburg sardine tin and in touch with a hotshot agent who advises she boost her social media presence, Amber hits Instagram hard, posting unintentional gossip fuel that culminates in pics of a mysterious new acquaintance who turns out to be a scandal unto himself. Between nightmarish gigs (baby photo shoots, anyone?) and styling a free-spirited starlet who seems allergic to clothing, Amber doesnโt know if sheโs on the brink of a big break or a breakdown. That is, until a career-making opportunity falls into her lapโand with it, the truth about real friends vs. cheap knockoffs. **
Review
Praise for The Stylist : โA hilarious vicarious red carpet romp.โ
( People )
โA master of slapstick comedy, Nixon keeps the pace fast and the tone bubbly... Nixon deftly crafts a Cinderella story for the millennial age in which our heroine finds not only her prince, but also her true friends. Glossy and teeming with influencers and fashionistas, this is a charming novel.โ (Kirkus Reviews)
โNo sophomore slump for Nixon; the second in the series is just as good as the first, and readers who fell for the first installment will do the same with this one. Bringing back her beloved characters and introducing new ones, Nixon depicts the glamorous and sometimes not-so-glamorous behind-the-scenes workings of New York Cityโs fashion industry, from botched baby photo shoots to secret โbag ladyโ drops.โ (Library Journal)
