Review by Marlene Engel
Living in La La Land (aka Los Angeles),
where a size 4 is considered over-weight and sleeping one’s way to the top is the
norm, Lila’s ready for a change. Holding
the invitation for her fifteenth high school reunion, she thinks maybe going
back to her hometown is just the respite she needs. However concerns about the welcome she’ll
receive when she shows up husband and childless gives her pause.
But, Lilia Montgomery has a secret …
she is the New York Times best-selling author of She Sins At Midnight. Embarrassed
of what her family and friends would think if they read her erotica infused
book, she published under a pen name. Her
secret‘s safe until her publisher informs her that she’s up for a RITA award,
the romance world’s equivalent to an Oscar!
As she embarks on her journey, it’s a
whirlwind of events. Beginning with
seeing her book at the airport gift shop and the Adonis of a man who tries striking
up conversation, to the peculiar way her parents are acting and her best friend
who’s life Lila wishes she had (complete with husband and kids), but finds out
isn’t being fulfilled by. Oh, and did I
mention this was all just on the first day back home?
She Sins At Midnight is a fun, laugh-out-loud novel about taking chances, discovering one’s
self and enjoying the ride along the way.
This book was so entertaining and the characters so amusing that I’m
keeping my fingers crossed for a sequel.

About the Author:
While attending the University of
Illinois in Chicago, Whitney Dineen was discovered by a local modeling agent
and began an unexpected career as a plus-size Ford model. She modeled in New
York City before moving to Los Angeles with her husband.
When she wasn’t modeling, she was in the
kitchen, baking delights to share with friends. Soon, her friends began asking
her to send baskets of her wonderful candies and cookies to business
associates, agents and production studios. Word spread like wildfire, and the rest,
as they say, is history. Whitney’s sensational creations are still in great
demand by her loyal celebrity clientele.
In addition to her love of chick-lit,
Whitney has also written a series of adventure books for middle readers. The
first of which, Wilhelmina and the Willamette Wig Factory, is nearing
completion.
Whitney and her husband, Jimmy, have
recently relocated to the beautiful Pacific Northwest to raise their children,
chickens and organic vegetables.
