    Emerson Watts - in Nikki Howard’s body - returns to Nikki’s home from a photo shoot to find a stranger waiting
    for her in the apartment’s lobby.  He reveals that he’s her brother – when she thought she was an orphan. It’s hard
    enough trying to keep up with the world, but now her brother drops a bomb on her.  Their mom is missing.

    Em/Nikki doesn’t know what to think of this information.  She doesn’t remember her mother or her brother.  Plus,
    she’s got a sneaking suspicion that Stark Enterprise might know more than they’re saying. Nikki already suspects
    Stark of bugging her apartment.  Who’s to say they haven’t gone farther?

    She’s made a deal with her brother to help find their mother.  In a moment of weakness, she confides in
    Christopher.  He’s willing to help her find her mother – for a price.  In exchange, he wants a login and password
    for Stark Enterprise.  Em/Nikki gets caught up in a plot to ruin the company she works for while trying to uncover
    the mystery surrounding her mother’s disappearance.

    A little science fiction blended with both mystery and romance equals a great series.  The secrets uncovered in
    BEING NIKKI will leave the reader eagerly awaiting RUNAWAY – a sign that Meg Cabot rocks yet again.
