The Scoop
“She hated the lunchtime scuttlebutt and thought the comparison preposterous. If anything, Abby took extra measures to downplay her good looks because of their gossip. She’d learned very fast that beauty and smarts weren’t the best mix in her chosen profession. At least not in LA. Inheriting her father’s naturally curly blond hair and clear blue eyes was almost a curse.

She wrote to entertain, but the core of all of her stories contained the truth.MoreLess
