So far, I've reviewed:
Today, I'm reviewing One Last Shot by Marcia King-Gamble.
In today's world, it's not uncommon for a so-called private sex tape featuring a celebrity to be released publicly. It's not surprising that one or more of those tapes have been digitally altered to place a famous person's face on the "body" in the video.
In fact, for some aging actors, doing this is considered a way to jumpstart a faltering career.
That's the situation facing actress Dania Browne who stars as Madeline Miller in a popular sitcom. She's entirely innocent in this fiasco—her ex-boyfriend did it to get revenge for her breaking it off with him.
Dania is mortified and thinks her career is over, not propelled to more popularity. Even worse is that the whole world thinks the nude woman in the video is her! What's worse than that? Her own family thinks it's her too!
Unable to face the public humiliation, Dania retreats to the family beach cottage at Last Chance Beach, with only her dog Bob to keep her company.
She adopts the personal of Delia White, complete with tats, pink hair, and a nose ring, nothing like her usual "America's Sweetheart" look.
Then she meeets Kael Huntington, the "boy next door" who appeals to her in every way. He's sweet and kind and is everything a woman could want—or so she thinks until she realizes he's a former celebrity photographer.
When all of Kael's buddies show up, and they're all watching the sex tape, Dania decides it's time to leave.
What about Kael? Has he watched the tape? Can he convince Dania that there's a good life ahead of her despite the phone sex tape? Will Kael be a part of her life, or will he sell the candid photographs he took of her on their many dates?
One Last Shot features the kind of hero every woman wants—a guy who will support you through thick and thin and "talk you off the ledge" when your life crumbles around you. Kael is that guy.
Find a recipe to try and stock up on ingredients so you'll be ready for a cocktail party of your own—even if you and your significant other are the only guests!
You'll also get to read an excerpt from each story in the boxset.
