دانلود کتاب Priceless

From Publishers WeeklyA spoiled brat finds her backbone when fate kicks her to the curb in tabloid staple Richie's decent follow-up to The Truth About Diamonds. Charlotte Williams goes from pampered princess to outcast after her adored father pleads guilty to a massive Wall Street fraud. To escape the wrath of cheated investors, an Internet smear campaign, and a creepy stalker, Charlotte heads to the New Orleans home of Millie, her beloved former nanny and the only mom she's known. What Charlotte finds, however, is far more than a safe harbor: a best friend in fashion maven Kat (their friendship may give readers Simple Life flashbacks); a handsome love interest in Millie's musician son, Jackson; and a chance to unleash the sensational singing voice inherited from a mom she only knows from a heartbreaking home movie. Richie, no stranger to celebrity and tabloid gossip, proves she's been there/done that in this celeb-savvy and disarmingly charming defense of the power of love and good genes.

FromThe protagonist of celebrity author Richie’s follow-up to The Truth about Diamonds (2006) is New York socialite Charlotte Williams, whose life is ruined when her father is sent to federal prison for embezzlement. She escapes the media and public’s prying eyes in New Orleans, where Miss Millie, the woman who raised her after her mother’s death, takes her in. Charlotte then meets Kat, the daughter of an influential New Orleans family, takes a job in her father’s restaurant, and learns to live under the radar. She even finds romance with Miss Millie’s son Jackson, and fulfillment singing in his jazz band. But her sweet new life is disrupted by a stalker who has set up a disturbing Web site about her. Things soon take a dangerous turn when Charlotte lets her stalker get too close. What skills Richie lacks in her attempt at suspense is balanced by her fluency in romance and fashion. --Aleksandra Walker
