Jenna Lane is a normal woman with normal desires: sleep, sustenance, love, the ability to wear jeans when she wants, and doughnuts.  

She is also an award-winning actress, celebrity, and (only mild) Twitter addict.  

Join her as she plows through interviews, auditions, sexism in the media, and having a severe allergic reaction on live TV.  Not to mention the social media frenzy surrounding her love of Coq (true), her drug addiction (false), and her relationship with her costar (also false, unfortunately).

**********
A/N: This is a slightly dark comedy about a normal, every day woman who just happens to also be a celebrity.  It is a first draft, so if you see any errors, please let me know! :-D

Every Saint Needs a Sinner by _merrittking_

Jourdan Mathews has a secret, and she knows she needs to take this one to the grave. * * * Her life was never complicated: a college student with a close family, good friends, and a plan for her future as a doctor. Had that night had never happened, she might even have been called ordinary. But we're not made by ordinary moments. Now in her senior year, Jourdan is in freefall after a catalyzing summer that turned everything upside-down. Her friends know she's in trouble, and her parents hope they've done enough to save her, but Jourdan doesn't feel anything anymore. They say moving on happens slowly, but something needs to change fast before life moves on without her. Ryder Harris considers his life to be the farthest thing from "ordinary." He isn't just the kind-of-good basketball player that made him popular in high school. He is the kind-of-great that comes along once in a generation, a fact that has propelled him on a course which only attempts to reach for the stars. If you ask him, this isn't luck or special talent. No, Ryder Harris makes a point to focus himself, to remain undistracted. He's got priorities, and at the very top of his list is being drafted into the NBA. That dream is very close to becoming a reality his senior year, so close he can almost taste it. But the universe has a nasty habit of giving us what we need, not what we want. * * * part I - Jourdan & Ryder * * * Every Saint Needs a Sinner. Copyright. © May 2022. All Rights Reserved.

My Star's Light is Overrated |✓ by -tangledthoughts

#10 in Humor 15/05/17 #29 in Teen Fiction 02/11/16 DISCLAIMER: I wrote this story when I was thirteen, so I'm sure that there are A TON of mistakes and plot holes. Reader's discretion is advisable. ❝Even through the cloudy nights of gloom and gray, it is a star's light that brings out a new Day❞ When a girl starts off a new school for the first time in her life, she obviously expects it to be far from sunshine and happiness. Especially if she's joined in the middle of the school year and used to be able to get up whenever she wanted, had her very own governess and lived out in the boonies. Not Day Winters. Meet the girl who defies logic of every kind, as she faces the real world for what it is despite holding a huge secret- that she is an online blogger with more than half of the world's population in love with her. This population however, isn't in love with Day, but her online form Starlight24. In an endless roller coaster of love, secrets, fights and friendship, Day is forced to accept the fact that even a Star's light will eventually burn out, and that even her own flame may flicker out into an overrated Daydream. ✨✨✨ © 2015 All rights reserved.

How to Housetrain Your Husband by RachelleBarrett7

The Most Important Thing: We've been friends for over a decade. We laugh. We drink, and we get raunchy, even though by now we are also moms. We meet as often as we can to share the ups and downs of our lives. We trust each other. And if it were up to me, we would be this close forever. The Subject: My best friends are happily married. But every marriage could use some work, right? Candace, a hard as nails business owner, tolerates her husband so long as he does as he's told. Miriam, a loveable homemaker, adores her husband Bob, even though he snores like a bear. Energetic Lucy needs her husband to act like a grownup. The Experiments: Me? I am Jenna, and I have really good ideas about how to get what we want from our marriages. With the right technique, I am confident that we can train our husbands to service every need, with a smile. What they don't know won't hurt them, right? Lesson Learned: Sometimes the experiment doesn't go as planned and sometimes you learn something you didn't know you needed to know.

The Reluctant Roadtripper (A Romantic Comedy) by Pollyf79

AMBY AWARDS TOP PICK 2024❤️ I can only see half of his face, reflected in the mirror at the front of the bus, and part of that is obscured by the peak of the black company-branded cap he's wearing. But I can see enough to glean that there's a strong jaw covered in scruff. A wide mouth that looks like it would be prone to smiling. He's wearing glasses with trendy light tortoiseshell frames, and I can't quite discern the colour of his eyes from my position . . . but some weird intuition is telling me that they'll be hazel, and I wonder when my brain is going to catch up. Because I *know* him, don't I? I'm almost certain of it. And he seems to know me, too. Or at least he thinks he does. The way he's glancing over at me lets me in on that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mirren Shepherd has *many* pet peeves. Top of the list, though? Staycations . . . And surprises. So when her girls' trip abroad is cancelled at the last minute and she finds herself roped into a minibus tour of Northern Scotland instead, she isn't remotely happy. And when she finds out who their guide is . . . It's yet another reason for her to dislike surprises. Because Owen Sullivan wasn't so much the one who got away . . . He was the one who just didn't return. And, after she finally got over him, she never expected to see him again. Mirren would prefer to leave the past in the past, but Owen is determined to try to right his wrongs. Can she trust him? Can she trust *herself*? Maybe, just maybe, this surprise - and staycation - won't be as bad as Mirren thinks . . . ~~~~~~~~~~~~

Love, Lattes and Epic fails by BWMcElroy

Meet Jenna Hughes, a 28-year-old marketing professional who believes she has her life somewhat together-until everything falls apart in a spectacularly awkward, life-ruining way. After being publicly dumped at her best friend's wedding (complete with a spilled cake and runaway groom situation), Jenna decides that she's done with relationships. Enter a series of hilarious (and tragic) dating fails, mistaken identity blunders, and one-too-many embarrassing encounters with her incredibly hot (and very single) neighbor, Max Carter. But as Jenna clumsily navigates her post-breakup life, fate (and her meddling friends) seem to keep throwing Max in her path. From awkward coffee shop run-ins to cringe-worthy yoga class disasters, Jenna and Max's worlds hilariously collide. Jenna soon realizes that love might not always come in a perfect package-it comes wrapped in coffee spills, epic misunderstandings, and far too many text message mishaps.

Falling For A Cowboy (NOW ON GALATEA) by JeniRaeD

Second Chance Romance Love-at-first sight--faster-paced love affair Single father Surprise baby HEA standalone Five years ago, my life changed when my wife left my two-year-old son and me in the middle of the night-breaking my heart. After that, I vowed to friends and family that I'd never fall in love again and would only focus on raising my autistic son and working on my farm and horse ranch. That was until a beautiful blonde-haired, green-eyed beauty moved to my town--changing my life forever. Being stubborn, I did everything I could not to let my ticker control me and my thinking process--avoiding eye contact with Josie, conversations, and what my ticker, mind, and soul was telling me... But then I saw Josie daily at the diner she worked at and became jealous whenever Jack, the town's annoying wanna-be cowboy, tried striking a relationship up with her. I always felt my wife, Hailey, would return to Maverick and me, and we'd be a family again. But the more time I focused on the new girl in town, the more I wanted Hailey out of my life, and the more I wanted Josie in mine. Then, one night, my life forever changed when I allowed a door to open and gave Josie something I said I'd never give--my ticker. Credit for cover: selfpubbookcovers.com/AKcoverdesign

Unexpected by Mrs_Write

For recent law school grad Charlotte Maxwell, real life has never been so good. On a post-graduation vacation with her best friend, the last thing Charlie is thinking about is meeting anyone: all she's looking to do is eat, drink, and get some sun (although not necessarily in that order). After three stressful years of focusing on school, Charlie's long overdue for some relaxation and she intends on maximizing every moment of this trip...by doing absolutely nothing. What she doesn't expect on her perfect vacation is to meet the perfect guy. Alex is smart, funny, and handsome. Despite their different backgrounds - Charlie is from a Midwestern middle class family while Alex is a wealthy Brit - their chemistry is undeniable. Charlie's not exactly the vacation fling kind of girl, but figures she can make an exception in Alex's case. But is Alex really too good to be true? What if the only souvenir Charlie brings back from her vacation is a broken heart? xoxo Steph
