Women's Fiction Contemporary
Not quite knocked up… Like everyone in New York media, editor Liz Buckley runs on
cupcakes, caffeine and cocktails. But at thirty-one, she's
plateaued at Paddy Cakes, a glossy baby magazine that flogs
thousand-dollar strollers to entitled, hypercompetitive
spawn-havers. Liz has spent years working a gazillion hours a week picking
up the slack for coworkers with kids, and she's tired of it.
So one day when her stress-related nausea is mistaken for
morning sickness by her bosses—boom! Liz is promoted to the
mommy track. She decides to run with it and plans to use her
paid time off to figure out her life: work, love and
otherwise. It'll be her "meternity" leave. By day, Liz rocks a foam-rubber belly under fab maternity
outfits. By night, she dumps the bump for karaoke nights and
boozy dinners out. But how long can she keep up her
charade…and hide it from the guy who might just be The One? As her "due date" approaches, Liz is exhausted—and
exhilarated—by the ruse, the guilt and the feelings brought
on by a totally fictional belly-tenant…about happiness,
success, family and the nature of love.
