About this ebook

Between Hollywood glamour and small-town secrets, what is the truth? The show American Superstars is the hottest thing on television, but its associate producer, Mandalay Florentino, is worried. She's just arrived in the tiny town of Daily, Texas, to arrange a surprise "reunion concert" for hometown finalist Amber Anderson. Only it turns out everyone in town seems to know the secret. And paparazzi are arriving. And word from Hollywood is that Amber has disappeared with a "bad boy" actor. Can anything go right in this tumbleweed town?
Imagene Doll loves her town of Daily, Texas, but things are lonelier without her beloved husband. Life seems dull. At least until that fancy-dressed woman pulls into town, looking terrified and glamorous all at once. Soon life's not the least bit boring as Imagene--and the rest of Daily--find themselves at the center of a media maelstrom...with a young girl's future on the line.

Ratings and reviews

I admit I wonder if the author is a transplanted Angeleno; the Daily characters seem a bit caricature at times. But perhaps that's deliberate. The story is good and stops a bit suddenly -- but that's what sequels are for ...

I thought I enjoyed the other novels I have read, but this one is over the top. Excellent writing with good humor sprinkled throughout. I want to read more of her books.

I love this story how people in smallbtiwnsctakec care if each other, look out for each other. Their just as busy as city people, they just remember that everybody is important. And without everybody they could do half as much as they only with God's help do they succeed.
