Scandal Sheet
by Gemma Halliday
Humorous, slightly outrageous and playful
Hollywood
gossip columnist Tina Bender has the
scoop on all the latest celebrities. She has no hesitation
whatsoever to print the latest news --- no matter how scandalous and
she has even been known to bend the truth a little in the name of a
story. When Tina receives an anonymous threat, her whole world is
upturned especially when it comes to the sexy bodyguard, Calvin Dean,
that her boss hires to keep her safe. How can she do her job with
him shadowing her? But as the threats become more deadly, his
presence might be exactly what she needs and in more ways than one.
Until now, Tina's lacks any real connection to those around
her. Her love life is confined to a internet friendship with
ManInBlack72 and she lives in a retirement home with her Aunt
Sue. As the danger mounts, so does the heat between this gossip
columnist and bodyguard. Together, they will have to sift through
all the stories she has printed and discover just who might be willing
to commit murder.
Gemma Halliday's sassy new Hollywood Headlines series in SCANDAL SHEET starts off with a
bang. Humorous, slightly outrageous and playful, this mystery
romance also touches the heart in moments amid the fast-paced race to
catch the culprit. A crazy set of Hollywood characters make up
the suspect list, characters just as wild as the stories Tina creates
from even the slightest innuendo. Tina may ride a hot pink Honda
Rebel motorcycle complete with yellow flames, but beneath the tough
exterior she wears on the job, her life lacks the kind of intimacy and
indeed non-virtual friendship a woman needs. Sexy, protective and
yet willing listen, Cal is just the man for this independent, sassy
tabloid reporter. Gemma Halliday creates a wonderful mixture of
romance and mystery as Tina digs even deeper into world behind the
celebrities. Delightful romantic twists and a clever mystery
puzzle make SCANDAL SHEET a
light romantic mystery full of smiles, laughter and perfectly placed
heart-warming moments amid the humorous, zany Hollywold tabloid
world. SCANDAL SHEET is
reading entertainment at its best.
