Boy Meets Girl
Synopsis
Kate Mackenzie is an HR assistant at the New York Journal, spending her days hunting for a decent apartment, dodging her dictatorial boss Amy, and trying to make sense of a relationship with a boyfriend who will not commit.
Then Amy orders her to fire an extremely popular employee from one of the paper's lunchrooms. Kate does it — and the employee sues for wrongful termination. Kate finds herself obliged to give a deposition to Mitch Hertzog, a handsome, wealthy lawyer who does not behave at all the way she expects a lawyer to behave.
Like The Boy Next Door before it, Boy Meets Girl is told entirely in documents: emails, instant messages, journal entries, phone messages, deposition transcripts, notes scrawled on menus and to-do lists. It is the second book in Meg Cabot's Boy series, though its story stands on its own.
