Yours Truly
by K.J. Pierce
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Chick
Lit/Romantic Comedy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Izzie
Greene never wanted the limelight. As a caterer for Poe, the top-rated U.S. TV
show, she had background player down pat. Her main focus was to spoil the cast
and crew and fantasize about her celebrity crush, Scotsman Cardwell Bennett,
while navigating the daily chaos.
Izzie’s
professional life takes a sharp left turn when her ex-boyfriend unexpectedly
arrives on set. Her personal life spirals into Hell when she runs afoul of an
unethical paparazzo. Thrust into the public eye, her notoriety is fueled by
equal measures of constant scrutiny, speculation, and half-truths. Her rumored
romance with Cardwell further stokes the flames.
Held
captive by the media, accident-prone Izzie struggles to keep her privacy,
secrets, and sanity intact—not to mention her sense of humor. With help from
her best friend Delly, her temperamental cat Edgar, and unexpected backup,
Izzie might withstand the onslaught. And survive the season.

EXCERPT TWO:
I
had just stooped to pull the last tray of scones from the oven when someone
leaned over and whispered in my ear.
“Smells
lovely.”
Startled,
I jerked back my head, connecting with the person behind me. Together, we
crashed to the floor in a tangle of bodies. I lifted my cheek from the warm
chest I’d landed on and froze.
“Are
you okay?” Cardwell smoothed away the hair from my face.
Dumbstruck,
I nodded, held my breath, and slid off his body. I didn’t exhale until I sat
leaning against the counter, waiting for my racing heart to slow.
Cardwell
stood and held out his hand.
I
grasped it and let him haul me to my feet. Once upright, I gasped. “Crap! Your
nose is bleeding!” Nothing better than head butting the leading man first thing
in the morning. I grabbed the closest towel and forced it under his nose.
“Sit.” I steered him to the stool Delly vacated.
He
leaned back his head, blood oozing through the fabric.
“No,
don’t tilt your head!” I shook my open- palmed hands. “Vincent will kill me if
you choke on your own blood.”
Cardwell
dropped his head back to a normal position, his eyes shining brightly over the
top of the towel.
“Keep
that in place and pinch just below the bridge of your nose. Don’t move.” I
grabbed a second towel, bolted to the icemaker, and created a makeshift ice
pack. I rushed back, ignoring his persistent gaze.

AUTHOR BIO:
K.J. Pierce is
a jack of all trades. Her interests are varied enough to make this a
requirement for a happy existence. Her main goal in life is to understand the
human condition, which she explores through various mediums, including fiction,
creative nonfiction, and scriptwriting. She sometimes succumbs to itchy-feet
syndrome, a holdover from her Army Brat days. As a result, she can sometimes be
found bouncing from locale to locale. She earned a BA in English
Literature/Creative Writing from Agnes Scott College and a MLitt in The Gothic
Imagination from the University of Stirling, Scotland. She puts them to good
use by crafting stories that run the gamut in terms of genres, but which always
include an exploration of the societal misfit and the darkness which pervades
all facets of life, even in the most comic of circumstances.
K.J.
currently lives on the east coast of Central Florida with her cat Dorian Gray,
who lives up to his name by striving to be the states most prolific lizard
serial killer. Yours Truly is her first novel.
