Book Review: L.A. Cinderella by Amanda Berry

Career-driven accountant Natalie Collins wasn't the type to wish for a Hollywood hero to rescue her. She preferred life away from celebrity glitz. Too bad the man who drove her wild was an A-list actor.

With her understated beauty and brains, Natalie was the one person Chase Booker could trust. He could see the strong, sexy woman beneath her shy exterior, and she stirred a blinding passion in him that made it easy to forget that they were from different worlds. But when she was in his arms, their worlds were dangerously close to colliding....




I love how Amanda Berry took our American Royalty, Hollywood Movies Stars, and made a dreamy and also real hero.  She also created a beautiful (not in the Hollywood glamour way, but real world way) heroine.

Natalie is the everyday woman of America, hard working and well grounded.
Chase is every American woman dream guy when they watch the magical silver screen.
Berry does a magical job of colliding the real American world with the glamours Hollywood world.

BTW Love the ending of Chapter 3

I'm back sorry I haven't updated in a long time.  I started back to work at school and the board hired me for full time! So I don't have as many free hours in the day anymore.  Plus I got sick, but I'm better now.  So now I need a plan to write for two hours everyday.  And I plan to write from 6 pm. to 8 pm everyday. This is another attempt at Project Nora.

I also need to post my reviews for

Book review – Leaving Gee’s Bend

Leaving Gee's Bend

Here’s a story about a little piece of land in Alabama, Gee’s Bend, now called Boykin, Alabama.

It has a slow beginning, but once the main character, Ludelphia Bennett started her journey to Camden in order to save her mama, the pace picked up and story grabbed my interest. At that point I was on the adventure with Lu.

My favorite part is the chapter The Witches of Gee’s Bend.

The ending is worth the slow beginning.

Cover Art: 5 stars

Beginning: 3 stars

Ending: 5 stars

Now I’m wondering what’s next for Irene Latham…another historical? Maybe something contemporary? Whatever she writes next it’s on my reading list.
