Book #13 Fifteen Minutes of Shame

January 22, 2009 By Mary

Fifteen Minutes of Shame by Lisa Daily

Synopsis
A real-life dating columnist and book author (Stop Getting Dumped!), Daily puts her debut novel’s heroine into her professional shoes. Darby Vaughn, 31, is enjoying her success as the nation’s most popular romance expert: she’s got bestselling books, TV appearances and even her own perfume. But her empire threatens to topple when her cheating husband, aka her publicist, humiliates her and leaves her vulnerable to giant aftershocks in the press. After a few days of intense girlfriend therapy, Darby emerges from the haze of margaritas and sappy movies to rebuild her life starting with spin dating—i.e., dating for publicity. Besides being photographed canoodling with a basketball star and a young model, Darby hires the best divorce lawyer in town, who also just happens to be the hottest. Daily keeps things moving along quickly, and though her style is not exactly seasoned, she delivers some surprising depth and a heroine with heart to root for.

My Rating: 4 stars
I just love Chick Lit and with that said, this is a great Chick Lit read. This is not going to win any Pulitzer Prize but it is a nice diversion for a stormy afternoon. This is one of those books that has just enough elements where is could possibly be true, but not quite.
