When the top columnist quits to work in New York, Sadie is thrown in at the deep end and becomes the Talkabout columnist for the paper. Talkabout is a newsy, fashion, beauty, nightlife, gossipy column that balances the hard news features in the tabloid.<\/p>\n<p>As the new columnist, Sadie is sent by her editor, Jamieson, who she secretly has a crush on, to cover a feature about an upmarket hairdressing salon in the heart of the city. But like most things in Sadie\u2019s life, nothing ever runs according to plan.<\/p>\n<p>For a start, it\u2019s raining, so she\u2019s soaked by the time she arrives at the salon, which is owned by the gorgeous but overly demanding Cosmo (a renowned hairdressing entrepreneur who can make any woman look great). Cosmo has created a new range of hair colours to transform the average brunette into a sultry bombshell.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, his campaign model leaves him just as he\u2019s about to launch his new colour range. Luckily, Sadie arrives on the scene. Cosmo sees something in her that he believes has potential \u2014 an exciting, contemporary, everywoman quality, and sets about persuading her to be the brunette bombshell for his advertising campaign.<\/p>\n<p>So begins Sadie\u2019s double life. By day, she\u2019s the newspaper journalist, and by night she\u2019s the woman behind the lustrous look thousands of women want.<\/p>\n<p>Available from:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B005XG0J2K\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-627\" title=\"Buy From Amazon.co.uk\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.toffeeapplepublishingworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/Buy-From-Amazoncouk.gif\" width=\"170\" height=\"28\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B005XG0J2K\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-626\" title=\"Buy From Amazon.com\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.toffeeapplepublishingworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/Buy-From-Amazoncom.gif\" width=\"176\" height=\"28\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twenty\u2013six year old Sadie works as a newspaper journalist in the stressed out, deadline crushing, editorial department of a London tabloid.
