"The Truth About Fame" by Toni Shiloh -- Book Review

 

About the Book

My life has always been in the spotlight. Born to two famous parents and then quickly rising to "super" status in the modeling world ensured that I, Astoria "Tori" Bell, would always have my image plastered across newsstands. Unfortunately, adoring fans weren't always magnanimous and now I have a stalker on my hands.

Oddly enough, the tall, dark, and all-too handsome bodyguard hired to protect me seems more harmful than the threatening notes from the stalker. As well as his plan to flush out the danger by proposing a fake engagement.

The lines between pretend and reality blur and I have to shore up my resolves. Baggage from my past means I can't let myself be vulnerable. But the way Marcel Fox treats me has me thinking otherwise.

With a new rock on my finger and the man who put it there by my side, happily ever after seems like a possibility or is that as fake as my public persona?

The Truth About Fame is the second book in the Christian Chick Lit series: Faith & Fortune.


My Thoughts

"The Truth About Fame" is the second book in the Faith and Fortune series and I think it would be best to read the books in order so you know the beginning of the story since the threat of the stalker and the need for the security detail starts in the first book. I found the book to be well written and the characters were realistic and believable. It was easy to read and had a nice flow. The biblical faith thread was woven through well. I liked the side characters as well. I never expected who the stalker turned out to be. I look forward to reading Octavia's story.
