can you keep a secret? - sophie kinsella


Having read this before, it was a totally enjoyable 2nd read. About emma, nervous on a flight, spills all, and I mean ALL, her secrets, including how she lied to her boyfriend about her clothes size, that she loves jazz when she hates it, how she gets back at her colleagues, how she faked her CV, how she hates her perfect cousin who sucks up to her parents, about her g string and her g spot (!) to a complete stranger sitting next to her on the flight, only to go to work the next day, and find that the said stranger is actually the top most boss, just come in from America to the uk, to check on the local scene of things… imagine her mortification!
Well, they end up going out with each other, only emma gets humiliated on national tv, as jack harper, her boss, doing a tv interview about himself and perhaps the launch of a new womans product, accidentally ( seemingly ) divulges all of emma’s secrets, all while talking about the target aim of his new womans product. In truth, he is in love with her and just couldn’t help talking all about her!
Emma, feeling totally used, has to face life as usual after that… no small thing! Refusing to talk to jack, she is eventually forced to, and turns out the day is saved in the end, after all…. :) a happy ending after all.
