Popular, sexy actress Zoe Tarleton desperately needs lawyer
Flynn Granger...to teach her how to be a nerd! Tired of the
brainless, sex-pot portrayals she's known for, Zoe has her
eye on the role of a lifetime, but doubts anyone in
Hollywood will take her seriously. She comes up with the
idea of one-on-one tutoring from her lawyer, in the
unlikely named town of Long Shaft, California. Unable to
resist, Flynn agrees to her plan, but only with the
stipulation he be allowed to explain to his fiancée what
they're doing.
In Long Shaft, Zoe's high school friend has taken care of
everything, arranging for them to stay in a secluded cabin
deep in the heart of Bigfoot Country. Flynn soon finds
himself enjoying being Zoe's nerd coach, especially after
they begin acting out the R-rated script! However, someone
is unhappy with the incognito couple's presence. Accidents
begin to happen, and the list of culprits is lengthy.
Ms. Thompson has another hit with GONE WITH THE NERD, the
latest in her popular Nerd series. Humor and sensuality
abound, Flynn and Zoe are terrific foils for one another,
and the supporting characters, including Bigfoot, add much
to the plot. The identity of the would-be killer was no
surprise to me, but that didn't keep me from enjoying the
story.
Hot movie star Zoe Tarleton gets piles of money but no
respect because she always plays a beautiful bombshell.
When she gets the chance to play a geeky chemist working on
a formula to combine weight loss, sexual potency, and anti-
aging in one powerful pill, she is determined that this
role will open up her career. Zoe may be too hot to
understand her character, but she has a plan: her ultimate
nerd lawyer Flynn Granger can teach her the ropes.
Flynn agrees to help Zoe out, but he's strictly business
about it--his girlfriend is a Harvard professor and he
plans to propose the next weekend. But when he sees Zoe in
an outfit she considers nerdy, he realizes he's taken on an
impossible task--she's just too cool to change. As they
rehearse scenes in a secluded California cabin, they'll
have to embrace their alter egos and fight the growing
attraction between them. And they'll have to dodge an
increasingly unstable stalker who wants to end their
relationship...and Zoe's life.
Gone WIth the Nerd is Vicki Lewis Thompson at her
fun, sexy best.
