Princess Izzy and the E Street Shuffle - Paperback

by Beverly Bartlett (Author)

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.
