From the AuthorWith Stardom Can Be Murder I had a hard time knowing how I would approach this plot. In the beginning, agents were advising me to go "bigger" (as in, more dangerous, grittier) with my storylines. I wrote the first four chapters and set it aside. Ultimately, by the time it was written, I had changed publishers and was given a little more control over the outcome so I completely rewrote those original chapters. Although it seemed tempting to throw every possible bad outcome at Charlie and Drake, I know that my readers prefer Charlie's softer, more humorous side. Ultimately, she ends up dealing with the bad guys with her usual 'attitude.' I hope you like the result!
