Claiming Victory: A Romantic Comedy - Beverley Watts

Descriere Claiming Victory: A Romantic Comedy - Beverley Watts

Could the most famous actor in the world fall for an ordinary girl? Find out in this funny lighthearted romantic comedy set in beautiful South Devon. \nAt thirty two, Victory Shackleford is arguably overweight, undeniably frumpish and the love of her life is a dog. She still lives at home with her father - an eccentric retired Admiral who she considers reckless, irresponsible, and totally incapable of looking after himself. Her father on the other hand thinks Victory is a boring nagging harpy with no imagination or sense of adventure and what's more, he's determined to get her married off. Unfortunately there's no one in the picturesque yachting town of Dartmouth that Tory is remotely interested in, despite her father's best efforts. But all that is about to change when she discovers that her madcap father has rented out their house as a location shoot for the biggest Hollywood blockbuster of the year. As cast and crew descend, Tory's humdrum orderly existence is turned completely upside down, especially as the lead actor has just been voted the sexiest man on the planet... Funny and poignant in turn, Claiming Victory is a must for fans of laugh out loud romantic comedy books. Praise for the Dartmouth Diaries: 'I can't ever remember laughing so much at a book.' \n'I'm reading them now. Haven't laughed out loud for so long. Absolute joy.' \n'Belly laughs all the way. Recommended to a friend who rang to say she just couldn't stop laughing. Excellent.' \n'Brilliant books that really do make you laugh out loud. You just don't want to put them down.' \n'I've binge read the first three books. I've laughed to the point of hysterics at the Admiral.' \n'I loved this series. I haven't laughed this much in ages.' \n'Don't read them in the early hours of the morning if hubby is asleep, they made me howl with laughter. Tried to stifle it, but shook the bedclothes. Absolutely brilliant.' \n'So, let me get this straight Admiral. Your plan is to somehow get Noah Westbrook, the most famous actor on the entire planet to fall in love with your daughter Victory, who we both love dearly, but - and please don't take offence Sir - who you yourself admit is built generously across the aft, and whose face is unlikely to launch the Dartmouth ferry, let alone a thousand ships...'At thirty two, Victory Shackleford is arguably overweight, undeniably frumpish and the love of her life is a dog.
