Evaleen - From Rags to Riches [Kindle Edition] Sandra Rector

warning:this book takes place during the great depression, world war 2 and a few years after.
its very melancholy and i felt relieved to be done reading it.

In Evaleen - From Rags to Riches, Eva Doyle, a shy teenager, decides to make and sell beauty creams from an old recipe book, given to her by her grandmother who was known for having a beautiful complexion even into old age. Eva's goal is to support her desperately poor parents. Unfortunately nobody seems to want something as useless as beauty creams. Worse, she is definitely not a beauty herself, there's her father's untimely death, her mother's mental decline and her hopeless crush on a rich young man who barely knows she is alive. But then she decides to become somebody else, somebody named Evaleen.

Rock Star's Girl (A Hollywood Dating Story) [Kindle Edition]

Emily Watts just wants a weekend break from the workaholic hours she's taken on to keep her business -- a popular fashion-snark web site -- up and running. What she gets is overnight celebrity and a career-killing media scandal.

While taking time out to attend a concert in support of friend Jesse Cinder, a struggling musician, Emily meets Cory Sampson, the lead singer of a chart-topping rock band. When she agrees to a date with Cory, making entertainment headlines is the last thing she expects. Even so, it's a minor surprise by comparison to her discovery that in the music world, media notoriety trumps all. Tabloid allegations erupt when Cory and fame-hungry Jesse use Emily for personal gain, and her tarnished image spells disaster -- personally and professionally. To save the web site and writing career she's made her life and dream, Emily must go from being a pawn in the Hollywood headline game to becoming the media mastermind.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005ECMJ2G/ref=oh_d__o06_details_o06__i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

There are three rules, according to Zoe—don't lose control of the situation, don't have sex with the client, and never take off the mask.Shy, retiring Chloe has no idea how to go about dominating anyone. But that won't be a problem for long because the "client", Mark Jacobs, is a hot alpha male in a black leather mask of his own who prefers to take the lead when it comes to sex.Soon Chloe is breaking all the rules for one night of forbidden passion but when she decides to take off her mask and asks Mark to do the same, she has no idea that the black leather he wears conceals a dark secret that may change her life forever.

My opinion: adult, too much forcing. i was let down at the end.
