Chapter 1
My name is Isabella "Bella" Jade Meade, the first daughter of Claire and the late Bradford Meade. When I say first daughter, I mean my eldest brother is now my sister. Alexander, who my family thought died in a skiing accident, came back as a woman named Alexis. Guess my brother liked my stuff so much that he became a girl. Minor joke. Anyway, I have a sister and two brothers.
Daniel Bradford Meade is my older brother. He is very handsome, has icy blue eyes like mine, and spiky brown hair. He lives in London England. He was married to a woman named Molly but she died of cancer. She told him to follow his heart. He followed it to our best friend, Betty Suarez. Betty Suarez used to be his assistant, then she became Junior Features Editor then she took an Editor-in-Chief Job in England. My brother almost burned down my office when she told him. Anyway, Daniel moved to England. Betty and Daniel have been married for three years, have a two year old daughter named Sabrina and one on the way.
Tyler is my half-brother. We have the same mother but different fathers. He came into my life three years ago. He is the best brother ever. He works at Mode as a model. His dad is Cal Hartley. Cal used to own half of Mode but we got that half back.
Claire Meade is the best mother ever. She was in jail for most of my life but she was wrongfully arrested. She is back and better than ever.
I fired Wilhelmina Slater because Editor-in-Chief is my rightful job as a Meade. I left Marc St. James as my creative director because he does a great job. He is also one of my best friends. Amanda Tanen Summers is my best friend who happens to be engaged to Tyler. She is part time stylist and my assistant. She is great help when I need it.
So on with my story.
