Beauty Salon owner Beth Ann Dixon, long term resident of Presidant Park trailer park and long suffering wife of Billy Ray wants more out of life that the existence she has experienced thus far.

Her dream starts when she wins at bingo and buys herself a computer. She decides that she will write an erotic novel and become rich and famous the world over. Her husband, and everyone else who discovers her plan, laugh at her, for how could someone who never even finished high school, become a famous writer?

But Beth Ann is determined to prove them all wrong, and then who'll be laughing?

I loved this book, populated by characters that you can just imagine living in this fictional trailer park, but they never become cariacatures, just very funny. My favourite character was Janet, the local busybody.

Most of the love secens take place within Beth Ann's novel, almost like a little book within a book, and are written very well. I couldn't really tell that the book was written by two different authors, their styles melded so well.

It is a very funny book, but there are some dramatic moments as well, just like life, although if I lived in President Park, I'm not sure I could take all that excitement!

When I read the author's introduction in this book I was thinking it was going to be a tame romance. Heck no. There's some threeways and a lesbian encounter in these pages. If those types of things don't turn you off then I would say give this one a try. The story moves along at a snappy pace and never gets bogged down. Even though this is the second in a series with the same characters, don't let that deter you away from it. There is enough of a recap through conversations and whatnot to give you a good idea of the first book's storyline. To me, this was one of those steamy books that I wish were more readily available.… (mehr)
