A
Covington Falls Chronicles Romance
By:

Addison
Covington is the reigning Ice Queen of television. Until her producer
husband falls in love with her on-screen daughter and a well-placed
punch on national television casts her as the wicked ex-wife. Fired
and disgraced, she escapes to Covington Falls, the idyllic Southern
town where she found comfort in a time of turmoil as a teenager.
Life
is constantly on the brink of chaos for widower Ethan Thomas. Being a
single father is one challenge. As a high school principle he also
has to deal with hundreds of students and their interfering parents.
Now, he’s short one drama teacher and if he doesn’t find a
replacement to direct the spring musical he’s going to have a riot
on his hands. His childhood neighbor, Addison Covington, could be an
answer to prayer. Or one more complication he can’t afford.
Before
Addison can say “Casting Call” she's drafted to direct the high
school musical. Soon she’d dealing with some off-key caterwauling,
a bitter stepson showing up on her doorstep, and the boy-next-door
turned sexiest high school principal she's ever met. One thing
Addison and Ethan agree on is that there’s no room in their lives
for romance. He’s got too much at stake, and she needs to reclaim
her former glory in Hollywood. In the end, these two lost souls will
choreograph a happy ending with the help of Grace, Love and a Curtain
Call.

Oh wowie wowie wow I LOVE the premise. Must read this. WILL read this! :D
ReplyDelete*ahem* now that my fan girling has subsided...to answer your question; I like the characters in small towns. They seem richer and more three dimensional. Some of the funniest secondary characters I remember reading come from small town series, and a few of them get their own stories told, which is another part of the reason why I love the characters. :)
Hi there. I loved the premise of a Hollywood diva having to direct a high school musical. This was a fun book to write. Took my back to my days of doing shows. I also have as much fun writing the secondary characters. They add a richness to the story and because it's a series I'm able to bring certain characters back. This is the second book in the series (MARRY ME is the first) and I have characters from that book who appear in this one.
DeleteHi and thanks for hosting me today! Looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteI like how everyone knows everyone else and all the backstory found in small town novels and series. :-)
