When the Past Hunts You: Family Ties, Buried Scandals, and High-Stakes Survival with Author Adele Royce
Description
My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Adele Royce, author of the book Slipper Girl. Adele Royce holds a BA in English from Arizona State University, where she graduated magna cum laude. Her published novels include Camera Ready, Princess Smile, and For Position Only, which was a BookLife by Publishers Weekly Editor’s Pick, and Summer’s Blood, which received the coveted Kirkus starred review. An advertising and PR executive, Adele spent most of her career on the Las Vegas Strip, an experience that gave color to her latest novel, Slipper Girl. She is currently working on the sequel to Slipper Girl as well as Deadly Sins, a collection of short stories.
Adele owns a marketing consulting firm in San Diego, California, where she resides with her husband and two cats.
In my book review, I stated Slipper Girl is a contemporary fiction by Adele Royce. Although this is the second in the series, one doesn't have to read the first book to know what is going on in the second. We meet Skylar, a Vice President of Marketing, but soon learn she has a past she'd rather keep hidden. And she's able to do just that until her estranged mother shows up in Las Vegas and threatens to topple everything Skylar has built.
I loved Skylar, the self-made woman who feels she must be perfect to atone for her past. And then, when her past came blasting in, I instinctively understood that she felt she had nowhere to turn. When blackmail and deception come rushing in, she doesn't know who to trust, so she simply trusts herself - even when I was begging her to call her father!
If you love a story that keeps you on the edge of your seat, has redemption and resilience, and shows you that family bonds are not to be messed with, then you'll love this story!
