The struggling writing team of Philip and Claire receive an invitation from their friend, Gilbert, whom they don't trust half the time, about a writing job in Los Angeles. The very excited Philip and the skeptical Claire board a plane that will hopefully land them the stardom they crave. But as was already predicted, Gilbert is up to his old tricks.

Philip and Claire discover that Gilbert wrote (or rather rewrote) a script and placed all of their names on the title page. And unless you've lived in a cave your whole life, you should certainly pick up on the many famous one- liners from the script that have appeared on many game shows. But fortunately for them, the man with the hiring power has never seen the famous film and doesn't see plagiarism staring in his face. He files it away and hires them to adapt a book to the screen.

Philip puts the whole fear of plagiarism aside when the very handsome, talented and secretly gay Stephen Donato and his mother, Diana, are cast in the movie, which they are "really" writing. His heart flutters and goes pitter- patter as he tries to devise ways to get close to Stephen. But to add more fuel to this already hot fire, Lily, Diana's sister, is writing a tell-all work of so-called literature that will expose Stephen's other life. Now the real fun begins.

The writing team begins working furiously on the script. Philip goes undercover and begins his role as Glen in order to help Lily write her book and to sway her from exposing his new heartthrob, Stephen. But it's a small world, and a very greedy and disturbing person from Gilbert, Philip and Claire's past magically appears and threatens to reveal all the family's little secrets. Will Philip be able to protect his love, and what other secrets are lurking about?

MY LUCKY STAR by Joe Keenan (the Emmy-winning writer and producer of Frasier) is hilariously funny and filled with great one-liners and slapstick comedy. Each page also reveals drama and sensuality. And don't forget the many secrets that keep popping up. This work is another great addition to my library.
