STILLETOS & SCOUNDRELS
by DR. LAINA TURNER-MOLASKI
SYNOPSIS (borrowed from B&N):
Presley Thurman, a sassy, thirty-something red-head, was looking to reinvent herself. She didn't allow the fact she was recently fired to bother her - she was ready to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a writer. Presley is a lover of shopping and Starbucks, and even though she sometimes had bad taste in men, she always had great taste in clothes. Not looking back on corporate America, Presley decided to follow her dream. With her feisty nature and a spirit to not "sweat the small stuff," she was ready to tackle any challenge (even if she had no idea how she would pay the bills). When her friend Trevor offered her a job with his online magazine to interview public figures, she jumped at the chance. However, the new job turned into something unexpected when the U.S. Senator she was slated to write about was murdered - in her home town! Presley was excited - she hadn't seen so much buzz since the spring sample sale at Saks. She was ready for this adventure, even if it didn't seem to fit neatly into her life. She couldn't pass up the opportunity to be in the middle of the buzz. Presley was determined (not to mention curious) to find the killer and write her story. After all, she couldn't afford her shoe habit without a job and she was certainly not one to shy away from danger. The only thing standing in her way was an old high school fling, Cooper Sands, head of the Senator's security. He was not actually standing in her way, but because of his good looks, he was the biggest distraction and one she was having the hardest time overcoming. Cooper felt it was too dangerous for Presley to look for a killer and tried to distract her with reliving the past; which Presley found more dangerous than any killer. While she attempted to resist Cooper's good looks and charm, Presley was able to discover the Senator's wife, Helen, had been having an affair... with her best friend's boyfriend! Did Helen kill the Senator? Or was it the Senator's love of gambling that got him killed? And what was Cooper's secret tie to the mob boss Garrison Palazzo? Presley was betting her favorite pair of Manolo's she will find the killer... but will time run out!

No Stilletos for me... most of my heels are chunky. I have a bit of a clutz problem... then there's the fact that, except for church & work, the only place I go is to the soccer field.
No I don't own any stilettos.
Thanks to a bunch of chronic foot problems I am relegated to wearing primarily athletic shoes and when I am forced to get dressed up on rare occasions I go with flats.

A pair of stilletos you bet but I honestly haven't worn them in years. I might break my neck if I try to walk in them now lol! I just can't part with them though. Thanks for the giveaway!

Stillettos are gorgeous to behold but hard on the back, so no, I don't own a pair. I have pumps and low heels, even flats, but I'm afraid I'd twist my ankle in stillettos.

What a fun looking read! Do I own a pair of stilletos? Surely you are kidding? If I wear more than my fit-flops, it is tennis shoes and even the heels I wore in my formal gown for my son's wedding are small!

Yes, I have one pair of red ones that I have worn exactly one time about 13 years ago and they caused such horrible blisters, I haven't worn them since.

Actually I just bought a pair of the most beautiful stilettos you can imagine. I guess I look like a cow when I walk in them, but I feel beautiful :) Hugs from Anette in Norway :)
