Summary from Goodreads:
Quirky and clumsy twenty-two-year-old Paige Crawford arrives in London on a cold Saturday in January. Just when Paige starts to think that moving thousands of miles away from home with no real plan was a bad idea, Jason Frost appears. Confident and classy, Jason is the complete opposite of Paige and just what she needs in her life, or so she thinks.
But before their romance has time to blossom, Paige trips and falls into the arms of a mysterious man on a drunken night out. She’s snapped by paparazzi, and newspaper headlines the next day suggest that she’s having an affair with a married footballer.
Paige finds herself instantly elevated to tabloid celebrity status which isn’t exactly a picnic, particularly when trying to juggle her new job at Fashionista magazine, a catalog of dating disasters and a nagging doubt that she maybe she can’t conquer London after all.
When a trip back to Canada for Christmas reminds Paige why she left her old life behind, she returns to London with renewed vigor realizing that while jobs, flats and men may come and go, friends in London are forever.

Books & Chocolates Book Review:
The Accidental Socialite was a fun read. Paige Crawford is tired of her boring life and decided to high tail to London, all the way from Canada. Leaving her old life behind because she so much wanted a change is just what she got. Soon after arriving to London, her clumsy ways lands her into the spotlight of cameras and Paparazzi's. What turns out to be fun and exciting at first becomes more of a problem, since now she has no privacy and every move she makes, its so noted. Paige will find out hos celebrities truly live life being judged by all, hated and humiliated. Wahlstrom created and book packed with humor and very memorable characters. I laughed, i had mouth opening moments and I really enjoyed this book. I was given this book in return for an honest review. I give this ****4 chocolate stars. Great Job!
