About
From the highly acclaimed author of The Shackleford Sisters, Beverley Watts, comes the first in a series of romantic comedies that will actually make you laugh out loud. Get ready for a hilarious and heart-warming adventure in Claiming Victory - Book One of The Shackleford Diaries.
When Hollywood invades her sleepy seaside town, Victory Shackleford's quiet life becomes anything but ordinary...
Thirty-two-year-old Victory Shackleford has mastered the art of playing it safe. Comfortable in her predictable routine in the picturesque riverside town of Dartmouth, she's content with her work, her dog, and keeping her eccentric, adventure-loving father out of trouble. That is, until she discovers he's rented out their historic home as the setting for Hollywood's biggest blockbuster of the year and her meticulously organized world crumbles overnight.
Suddenly, Tory's sanctuary is swarming with film crews, chaos, and one devastatingly attractive leading man who's just been voted the sexiest man on the planet.
While cameras roll and her meddling father orchestrates increasingly outrageous matchmaking schemes, Tory finds herself thrust into the spotlight she's spent years avoiding. But as the boundaries between her carefully controlled world and Hollywood's glittering chaos blur, Tory must decide: Will she retreat to her comfort zone, or finally step into the starring role of her own life?
Perhaps her father's latest outrageous scheme might just lead to the most unexpected victory of all...
Claiming Victory is a sparkling British romantic comedy that proves sometimes the best plot twists happen when you're not following the script. Perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Beth O'Leary, and anyone who enjoys a heartwarming story of transformation, family bonds, and second chances at life and love.
"A perfectly paced romantic comedy with characters that leap off the page-you'll be cheering for Victory from the very first chapter!"
