Review of Love Under the Hot Lights (Scripted for Love book 1) by MK Meredith
Samantha Dekker has had a shit year ever since her husband's death. Hollywood closed its doors to her, but she just might be able to stage a comeback if Martin has anything to say about it. Now if she can just figure out how to work with Gage Cutler, the man she blamed for her husband's death, the man she also had (still has) feelings for.
As Samantha and Gage start working together, Gage has hope that the woman he loves may be letting him in. If he could only protect her from the ugliness of Hollywood, protect her from his past bad boy behavior, protect her from the harassment coming from an unknown source. And if only she'd quit running when things get a little tough!
Honestly, this would have been a 5 star read for me if Samantha hadn't driven me bananas. She was so bitter and so determined to run every time things didn't go her way, every time she felt her heart threatened a tiny bit. I wouldn't say she was weak, she had to be strong to deal with all she went through, but she was selfish and self-absorbed and impulsive, and those are traits I despise in a character, male or female. Aside from her, though, I loved Love Under the Hot Lights. It's emotionally satisfying, it's sexy and I adore Gage. I can't wait for more from MK Meredith.
