About the Book:Line producer Danny Byrd is well known in Hollywood for being someone who gets things done on time and under budget. But when his reputation takes a beating after his partner--and former best friend--makes off with their investors' money, Danny has but one chance to redeem himself and restore his ruined career.
LA lawyer Megan Pierce has sacrificed years of her life proving herself to impossible bosses, only to find herself disgusted at their snobbery and their specious business practices. When an opportunity to actually make a difference comes her way, she knows she has to grab it--even though she's not entirely clear what "it" is.
Danny and Megan are each other's best hope for redemption. What they never could have imagined was that they might also be each other's best hope for love.
My Thoughts:
Unscripted by Davis Bunn is a stand-alone,
contemporary fiction novel. With smooth prose, authentic characters, and a
compelling start, Unscripted entices the reader into the glamour and complexity
of Hollywood.
The characters in Unscripted are perhaps its brightest
star. Megan, one of the main characters, was strong, smart, and easy to admire.
Her personality fit flawlessly with her profession and situation. Even the
secondary characters perfectly suited their roles and enhanced the story in a meaningful
way. Annie, Jennie, Myron, Louisa, and Lane, were just some of the likable secondary
characters. Add to the characters, a
mystery and a dash of romance, and you have a good book.
I recommend Unscripted by Davis Bunn to readers who
enjoy contemporary fiction with strong characters and an interesting setting.
There are subtle Christian values and brief mentions of Megan’s father’s faith,
but it’s a light thread, not “preachy” at all.
