Secrets and lies are a killer way to start any partnership—especially a horizontal one.
Now, I’m a glass half full kinda of guy, so, after the ‘you’re fired’ speech was directed at me, I figure now’s the time to be the screenwriter I came to sunny California to be. Unfortunately, there are about as many people trying to sell a script in L.A. as there are vegans in the pacific northwest.
But lucky for me, a few weeks ago my agent found an investor for my script. Hooray, all my problems are solved! NOT.
Because the investor will only agree to fund my film if I use one specific actress. And that one specific actress? Well of course, it just has to be the same actress I screwed over only months before. But she doesn’t need to know about that one tiny detail, does she? All that matters is getting her to agree to do the film and I’ll do whatever it takes. We can leave the past, in the past, right?
I thought my charm would win her over. Never would I have been prepared for the terms she laid out on the table.
She needed a nanny.
I needed a lead actress.
Somehow I became The Manny.
The Manny is just the latest funny and sweet romance from the amazing duo that is Piper Rayne. It, like all previous books, will have you laughing loudly, swooning, and falling in love with all of the characters involved. Layla was a down to earth character - even though she's an actress. She felt very real and like someone I'd want to know in real life. As a single mom, she finds herself stuff in a no-win situation with her career when her latest nanny walks off the job. Trying to make the best of the latest deal on the table - she makes a bargain withthe script writer who needs her as his star or his script won't be invested in - he'll be her Manny until she can find a different option. Having struggled with his own career - Vance wants nothing more than for his script to be turned into what he hopes will be the next big movie - but one thing stands in the way of that dream - getting Layla to agree to being the Star of the show so to speak. Vance knows he's going to face obstacles in getting her to agree - but those obstacles turn out to be the complete opposite of what he expected - but only because Layla doesn't know everything. As Vance falls for not only Layla but her children he climbs himself deeper into a hole of his own making. Can he put more than his heart on the line and win Layla over for more than just a starring role in his movie? Will these two find more than a professional relationship with each other? Snag a copy of The Manny today and find out for yourself. |
Piper Rayne, or Piper and Rayne, whichever you prefer because we’re not one author, we’re two. Yep, you get two established authors for the price of one. You might be wondering if you know us? Maybe you’ll read our books and figure it out. Maybe you won’t. Does it really matter?
We aren’t trying to stamp ourselves with a top-secret label. We wanted to write without apology. We wanted to not be pigeon holed into a specific outline. We wanted to give readers a story without them assuming how the story will flow. Everyone has their favorite authors, right? And when you pick up their books, you expect something from them. Whether it’s an alpha male, heavy angst, a happily ever after, there’s something you are absolutely certain the book will contain. Heck, we’re readers, too, we get it.
What can we tell you about ourselves? We both have kindle’s full of one-clickable books. We're both married to husbands who drive us to drink. We're both chauffeurs to our kids. Most of all, we love hot heroes and quirky heroines that make us laugh, and we hope you do, too.
