Excerpt from Hard Glamour
The winding roads down the hill circled and curved and circled again. I leaned forward, trying to read the street sign on my right. I’d driven by the big white house with a Mercedes and a BMW parked in the drive three times. I pressed the brake and stopped in the middle of the road… shit. I was lost. The sun sank in the west, and even with my sunglasses on, the harsh light blinded my eyes. I pulled hard on the wheel of my Jeep and turned left. There had to be a way out of this maze of streets and back to my motel - I just hadn’t found it yet. I sped down the road.
Orange-and-white barriers closed off the way I needed to go. Three giant white semi-trucks lined the road I needed to drive down. I could back up, turn around, and try to find my way back to my motel by going the other direction, but I wasn’t sure where I was. My fifteen-year-old Jeep didn’t have power steering, much less GPS. Instead, I pressed the clutch and pushed the stick into first gear, then wove around the barricade. The sun beat into my eyes and I squinted. I swiveled my neck to get a good look at the giant white semitrucks.
There was a planet logo and a studio name painted on the cab doors of the trucks. My heart kajolted in my chest. These were production trucks. Someone, somewhere on this street, was making a movie. I craned my neck to the right and lifted my foot from the brake, and my Jeep rolled forward. In front of the last truck was a giant RV. Was there a star inside? Someone I’d have seen on the big screen? My eyes widened and my heart beat faster. This was the very reason I’d shucked my golden opportunity in KC and taken the Big Risk. I wanted to be part of this world. I wanted to make movies. To work with people who made movies. For me, movies were magic.
Metal clanged and I slammed my foot onto the brake pedal.
“Hey! Watch the fuck where you’re going!”
Standing beside my Jeep with his eyes burning fire was the best-looking guy I’d ever seen. His white T-shirt strained over his chest and his black hair blazed in the sun. His arms were thick with muscle, and a giant tattoo wound over his forearm to where his hand was balled into a fist. The same fist that he’d just pounded onto the hood of my Jeep. His bright blue eyes pierced through my window. He squinted and his full lips pulled tight , then he walked around to my side of the Jeep.
 Up close he looked even better. Hot little flashes pulsed over my skin. His cheekbones were high and cut hard. His lips were full. His golden skin was perfect, flawless , his body muscled and tight under his clothes. With so much masculine perfection so near, I could barely breathe.
“D…d…do? Do I know you?” I stammered out. He looked so familiar. That face. My eyes dropped down to his neck and roamed over his body.
“Do you know me?” He shook his head and rolled his eyes up toward the sky. “Oh, sweetheart.” He crossed his arms and the muscles in his forearms flinched. “There is no way that you don’t recognize this face, is there?” He pointed at his own mug. He looked at me like I’d fallen out of the sky from an alien planet. The sun lit him from behind and I squinted.
Did I know this guy? Did I recognize his face? I could sit here all day and watch his muscles tense. He waited and finally he pressed his face forward with a bored expression. “Even as good as you look, you’ve got to come up with a better line than that.”
