Mandalay
Florentino, an associate producer for a brand new hit reality show
called American Megastar had just landed in a the small town of Daily,
Texas when she began to seriously question herself. Not only had she
always felt pushed and bullied into jobs by her not-so-wonderful boss,
Ursula, but coming to the unbelievably slow county-like town of Daily
was almost torture.
Imagene Doll, a
new found widow, hadn’t seen much excitement in Daily, Texas in quite a
long time, so when she spotted a stranger looking very much out of
place, she knew that something big was about to go down. Introducing her
self to the pretty Amanda Lee (otherwise known as Mandalay if Imagene
could pronounce it right) was about the smartest and most exciting thing
she could have done for herself.
Once Mandalay and
Imagene decide to join forces in order to protect Amber and the big
secret from the world, the excitement and whirlwind of situations begin!
With Mandalay engaged, love and heartbreak was the last thing on her
mind, but a stranger puts it all to a test. Imagene just made it day by
day all the while missing her Jack, but never thought she could still
enjoy life without him again.
TALK OF THE TOWN
by Lisa Wingate had some great humorous moments. I loved the great
chemistry between the characters that fell in love. Carter being so cool
headed, easygoing and sweet and Mandalay was all woman with her thoughts
and emotions. I felt a great connection with the two of them. Great book
for those who like the feel of a slower paced book pace mixed with
tidbits of humor
