Publisher Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of Odd Mom Out and Flirting with Forty comes the story of a woman coping with loss and learning to love herself-and rediscovering love in the process.
At 38, Tiana Tomlinson has made it. America adores her as one of the anchors of "America Tonight", a top-rated nightly entertainment and news program. But even with the trappings that come with her elite lifestyle, she feels empty. Tiana desperately misses her late husband Keith, who died several years before. And in a business that thrives on youth, Tiana is getting the message that her age is starting to show and certain measures must be taken if she wants to remain in the spotlight.
It doesn't help that at every turn she has to deal with her adversary-the devilishly handsome, plastic surgeon to the stars, Michael Sullivan. But a trip away from the Hollywood madness is about to bring new problems-and a new man-into her life... and force Tiana to ask herself who she wants to be when the cameras are finally turned off.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Chick-lit's foremost apologist for the older-than-30-and-still-sexy (Flirting With Forty) targets the ageist banality of TV news and entertainment programs, chronicling the fall of 38-year-old anchor Tiana Tomlinson. "I've achieved far more than I ever expected, but it feels like so much less than I wanted," Tiana realizes as her network begins to nudge her aside for a fresher face. Reading the writing on the wall-and the lines in her face-the feisty journo delves deeper into work and turns to the lifelong friends who protect her even as her romantic and professional lives implode. In a last-ditch attempt to prove her professional chops, Tiana heads to Zambia to film the humanitarian work of hunky plastic surgeon to the stars Dr. Michael O'Sullivan. There's nothing to separate this from the herd of chick lit titles being released this summer: it's as breezy and formulaic as most.
