He snags an entry-level job at \u003ci\u003eEmpire\u003c\/i\u003e magazine, believing it's only a matter of time before he becomes a famous writer. And then late one night in a downtown bar he meets a gorgeous brunette who takes him home... \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCarmen Kelly wanted to be a hard-hitting journalist, only to find herself cast in the role of Empire's sex columnist thanks to the boys' club mentality of Manhattan magazines. Her latest piece is about an unfortunate--and unsatisfying--encounter with an awkward and nerdy guy, who was nice enough to look at but horribly inexperienced in bed. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLucas only discovers that he's slept with the infamous Carmen Kelly--that is, \u003ci\u003ehis own magazine's sex columnist!--\u003c\/i\u003ewhen he reads her printed take-down. Humiliated and furious, he pens a rebuttal and signs it, \"Nice Guy.\" \u003ci\u003eEmpire\u003c\/i\u003e publishes it, and the pair of columns go viral. Readers demand more. So the magazine makes an arrangement: Each week, Carmen and Lucas will sleep together... and write dueling accounts of their sexual exploits. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt's the most provocative sexual relationship any couple has had, but the columnist-lovers are soon engaging in more than a war of words: They become seduced by the city's rich and powerful, tempted by fame, and more attracted to each other than they're willing to admit. In the end, they will have to choose between ambition, love, and the consequences of total honesty. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\"The Devil Wears Prada\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003emeets \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eSex and the City\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e--\u003cb\u003ea page-turner that's part sex diary, part coming-of-age story.\" \u003c\/b\u003e--\u003cb\u003eCarolyn Kylstra, editor in chief, \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eSELF\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"I COULD NOT PUT THIS BOOK DOWN!!!
