Sinopse

Written in the form of emails, The Boy Next Door tells the story of Melissa Fuller, a celebrity journalist on the verge of losing her job. One morning, Mel is 68 minutes late for work, marking her 37th tardy arrival of the year. A record. Human Resources has already sent her an official memo about the matter, her boss seriously doubts her commitment to the newspaper, and even her best friend is concerned about her psychological well-being. However, this time, she has a real excuse: she was helping Helen Friedlander, her eighty-year-old neighbor, who fell into a coma after being hit in the head by a mysterious attack. Could the gossip columnist uncover a major story? What really happened inside Mrs. Friedlander's apartment? Certain that this incident is a hook for a story about defenseless old women in New York, Mel tries to convince her editor to publish the story. To do so, she needs to contact Max Friedlander, Helen's nephew, who was supposedly at the apartment to care for the old woman's cats and dogs. What Mel doesn't know is that Max isn't the least bit interested in his aunt's health or her pets. He's a bon vivant photographer with eyes only for supermodels. And, in fact, the person in the apartment taking care of the animals while Helen is in the hospital is John Trent, a wealthy heir who gave up the family fortune to be a crime reporter for the New York Chronicle, Mel's main competitor, the New York Journal. Trent owes Max a few favors and so agrees to stay at the apartment, pretending to be Max for a while. When Mel schedules an interview with Max, who is actually John, she starts to have real problems... The Boy Next Door is a delightful and engaging book that blends suspense, comedy, and romance.
