The Princess Diaries for adults! This clever and witty debut follows a fictitious princess whose royal advisor is a mechanic who takes his advice from Bruce Springsteen.
Spunky, plucky Isabella Cordage has taken Bisbania's royal family by storm, having fallen in love with the Prince. But being the wife to the heir to the throne is a complicated matter, and Isabella's every aching misstep soon earns her the title "Dizzy Izzy."
Determined to find herself a trustworthy adviser, she enlists her former car mechanic Geoffrey and brings him and his wife to live with them in Bisbania. Under Geoffrey's tutelage, which comes in the form of Bruce Springsteen lyrics, Isabella becomes the model of everything good and chic -- until tragedy strikes: an airplane piloted by Geoffrey, with the Prince as passenger, crashes, and only one body washes ashore.
This contemporary fairy tale sports surprising secrets, hidden identities, and an anonymous narrator whose personal stake in revealing the story is gradually exposed.

As a serious journalist for more than 15 years, I covered funerals, tragedies, tax increases, school board scandals, horse races, the occasional heart-warming feature and even war. (From the domestic front.) Working mostly for The Courier-Journal in Louisville, Ky, I interviewed visiting vice presidents, traveling first ladies and Fabio. It was all terribly exciting.
