About
this book:
“Athena Pappas is the head writer on one of the most popular sitcoms in television history. But when Vegas comedian Stephen Cosse is brought in to beef up the show's suddenly sagging ratings, she starts to worry about her job. Sparks fly as the competition--and attraction--between the two writers heats up. Athena has never had a problem scripting the romances of her characters. So why is her own love life so hard to script?
With humor and a Hollywood-insider viewpoint, Hello, Hollywood! delivers lots of laughs as the characters discover that not being in control of the plot of their lives might just be the best thing that ever happened to them.”

My personal Rating-
While
it’s been such a long time since I first read this book, this re-read was still
so much fun! There were a few comments and kisses that I didn’t remember,
though, so that lowers the ratings a bit, but it was all overall clean. Athena
and her family reminded me of Bella and her family, which goes to show me that
Miss Janice does great writing funny families!
Lots of
Spiritual Content and I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the
series (again!). ;)
See y’all
on Monday with a new review!
