Chore
Whore
Adventures
of a Celebrity Personal Assistant
By
Heather H. Howard
Stars
on the A-list know Corki Brown’s cell number by heart, and
they’re not afraid to use it. Whether they need her culinary
skills for a last minute dinner party, her shopping expertise for
finding novel gifts or her finesse to get them out of a jam, Corki
is the first person they phone.
As
if mothering the rich and famous isn’t enough to keep her
hopping, Corki also has a ten-year-old, negative attention-seeking
son. What with constant calls from the principal, her dwindling
client list, and a trio Murphy’s Law days, one can’t
help but wonder how Corki keeps it all together. But she’s
strong, determined and too principled to give into temptations that
would defeat a lesser woman.
No
heroine has ever earned “happily ever after” more than
Corki. When life looks its darkest, Corki hangs on until the beam
shines at the end of her tunnel. Readers get to vicariously rub
elbows with famous celebrities, shop in famous Rodeo Drive boutiques
and dine in the most exclusive establishments. Vivid descriptions
pull readers right onto the set. Loveable, detestable and outright
quirky characters give Chore Whore: Adventures of a Celebrity
Personal Assistant the perfect cast. Each persona gives an
Oscar-winning performance in this exceptional script.
Don’t
miss the premiere of an outstanding, unique plot complete with creative
subplots, which will make readers wonder who is really hiding behind
the author’s pseudonyms. Has Ms. Howard changed the names
to protect the guilty? One may never know for sure, but it’s
fun to speculate. Kudos to Heather Howard for writing an energetic,
fun-filled novel! |
