Sweet Victory: A Romantic Comedy - Paperback

by Beverley Watts (Author)

Get ready for more dizzying romance and laugh out loud comedy in Sweet Victory, the sequel to Claiming Victory and the second entry in The Shackleford Diaries (formerly The Dartmouth Diaries).
Against all the odds, perfectly ordinary girl next door, Victory Shackleford has won the heart of Hollywood heartthrob Noah Westbrook. But after a whirlwind courtship, the dust is now settling and Tory is faced with the reality of life with the most famous actor in the world. And it's not all hearts and flowers, especially as the media seem intent on digging up every bit of dirt about her they can possibly find.

When a secret comes to light that could not only land her madcap, irresponsible father in jail, but completely wreck Noah's acting career, Tory faces an impossible decision - one that could result in her losing everything. And not all fairy tales end happily ever after...

Sweet Victory is another funny lighthearted romantic comedy that will appeal to all lovers of British romantic comedy books.

Author Biography

Beverley and her husband divide their time between a large flat overlooking the sea on the beautiful English Riviera (where it's generally warm and wet) and an officer's cabin on the west coast of Scotland (where it's cold and wet). Between them they have 3 children (2 grown up) and a menagerie of animals including 2 dogs (an Irish terrier called Nelson, plus a neurotic 'Chorkie' named Pepé) and two cats called Dillon and Honey. Beverley spent 8 years teaching English as a Foreign Language to International Military Students in Britannia Royal Naval College which is the premier officer training establishment for the Royal Navy in the UK. She says that in the whole 8 years there was never a dull moment and many of her wonderful experiences at the College were not only memorable but were most definitely 'the stuff of fiction' An avid reader and writer since childhood, she always determined that on leaving she would write a book... Beverley is currently writing a series of romantic comedies entitled The Dartmouth Diaries. Claiming Victory - Book One, and Sweet Victory - Book Two, are already available on Amazon. Book Three - All For Victory, is planned for publication sometime in the autumn of 2015.
