Finally,
Blake has the life of her dreams, a love affair with her high school sweetheart
and a new baby on the way. Her dreams
take a turn when she receives a phone call from her ex-husband, Harry. Harry comes to town begging her for
forgiveness and vowing his undying love, but as usual with Harry things are not
what they seem.
Blake is a
true Southern Belle and rallies her team to prove Harry’s innocence.
This novella
was a cute, quick read and as always Ms. Albright delivers. This is a take-off from her Sassy Belle’s
series, but can certainly be read as a stand-alone, with that said it will lure
you in and have you running out to get the remaining books in the Sassy Belle’s
series.
About the Author:
After knowing Beth Albright for just a few short
seconds you are sure to learn she is from Alabama. No, it’s not the lilt of
magnolia you can still catch in her voice, or even the way she lovingly
describes her undying love for her famous alma mater's football champions. She
will tell you she loves Tuscaloosa, even after living quite literally all over
the country. Though Beth has had a remarkable career, from New York City to
Hollywood, and all points in between, she has never forgotten where she came
from...and what she loves. That's why when it came time to write, Beth had no
choice but to write about Tuscaloosa and The University of Alabama, and all the
quirky people she still calls family, though some do not actually share her
bloodline!
Beth Albright has always been a storyteller. After
spending nearly 15 years in talk radio, as a talk show host, playing the part
of a principal character on the soap opera, DAYS OF OUR LIVES, owning her own
acting school and children's theater, and raising a son who is a nationally
ranked figure skater, Beth has decided to return to her roots; storytelling.
When she was in the sixth grade, her teacher gave her the floor every Friday to
tell her stories. See, Beth was a talker, a future talk show host in the
making, and she was telling stories so much that her teacher couldn't teach.
Well, this brilliant teacher told 12 year old Beth if she would begin writing
her stories down, she would be allowed time to share those stories with the
class. And she's been writing, AND talking ever since. Beth has interviewed Bob
Hope, Oprah Winfrey, Betty White, Wolfgang Puck and George Burns live from the
Chinese Theatre, as well as numerous other celebrities, and authors. Then Beth
became a principal character on Days of Our Lives. But through all of the excitement
of talk shows and soap operas, Beth loved telling stories to her audience the
most. With a degree in Journalism from her beloved University of Alabama, She
remains true to her roots and has never forgotten where she comes from. Born
and raised in Tuscaloosa, "My grandfather was the play by play announcer
for the Crimson Tide in the 50s!" Beth will proudly tell you, she is a
down homespun girl, although she currently lives in San Francisco with her TV
producer husband and her brilliant son. She has just completed her first
trilogy, The Sassy Belles, and her first screen play, Kiss Me Goodnight.
