Titles Published in ten languages Wanderlust: A Novel of Sex and Sensibility
Writing a budget travel column for a New York newspaper is a dream come true for Kate Bogart. But a schedule that calls for Madrid in the morning and Lisbon by lunch has its downsides too. It isn't all exotic desitantions and beautifully bronzed bullfighters named Paolo. Constantly in motion, Kate updates her cardsharp mother, her cat-sitting best friend, her grumpy editor, and her maddeningly attractive, extreme adventurer ex-husband with vibrant, hilarious reports of her travels. But just when she thinks she's got everything under control, she receives an unexpected missive from an uppity British journalist named Miles Maxwell...and things really start to get complicated. The Loves of a D-Girl: A Novel of Sex, Lies and Script Development
Seven years after graduating from NYU with a screenwriting award, all Lizzie Hubbard has left is a sharp tongue, a bad attitude, and a lousy job. Lizzie spends her days toiling fruitlessly as a D-Girl, developing screenplays for a movie producer whose biggest hits are far in his past and stealing quickies with a Brazilian bike messenger. But when her boss, in a last-ditch effort to save his company, assigns her a hopeless script to fix, even a D-Girl as jaded as Lizzie can't resist the challenge to turn the amateur screenwriter into a real Hollywood player. The Loves of a D-Girl proves that second acts in life and love are definitely possible. But as every good D-Girl and screenwriter knows, the second act is always the trickiest part of the plot. |
