Kennedy Sloane Gets Scooped

Description

Faster than details break in a news story, Kennedy Sloane gets scooped.

On a rainy Manhattan afternoon, career-obsessed writer and news producer Kennedy loses the interview that was guaranteed to catapult her to senior producer status. Hours later, revered and feared book editor Muffin Evans, aka the Manuscript Eater, shelves the publication of her promising debut novel.

Over a night of tears and too many glasses of wine, Kennedy responds to an internet ad for a villa on the picturesque island of Hilton Head. She books a five-week "hiatus from life," to focus on herself, free from distractions.

However, soon after arriving on the island, J.P. Long catches Kennedy's hesitant eye. Despite a series of serendipitous encounters around the romantic oasis, Kennedy knows there's no room in her life for a charming professional golfer turned businessman who is battling his own personal and professional insecurities.

But maybe he's worth the trouble.

If there's one thing Kennedy's learned, it's that life rarely happens as expected, and sometimes, the best stories unfold when you stop chasing the perfect headline.
