Wardrobe Malfunction by Samantha Towle
Published February 18th 2017
From New York Times bestselling author, Samantha Towle, comes a new standalone romantic comedy.
Vaughn West, Hollywood heartthrob, has been at the top of his game for years. He thinks he's untouchable—until a betrayal brings him spiraling down. Now, everyone pities him, and if there's one thing Vaughn hates, it's pity.
After a few months of working his way through every available actress, pop star, model, and waitress in California, Vaughn needs to get his life back on track and focus on what he does best—making hit movies.
Charlotte Michaels is in love. Just not with one person.
Sadly, Charly's limited bank account doesn't allow her those luxuries, and the closest she gets are lucky finds in charity shops and working closely with some of those names in her job as a wardrobe assistant.
Now, Charly has landed the mother of all jobs—working on the new Vaughn West movie. Excited doesn't even cut it.
Only things don't go as planned, and it turns out that Vaughn is actually a jerk. A hot jerk, but a jerk nonetheless.
So, why do their clothes keep falling off whenever they're around each other? And why can't Charly keep her mind in the closet and off Vaughn?
Getting mixed up with a smart-mouthed, fashion-obsessed wardrobe assistant is the last thing Vaughn needs.
Getting mixed up with an arrogant, self-centered, obnoxious, jumped-up actor who has a lack of respect for fashion is the last thing Charly needs.
Things are about to get hot, dirty, and messy in Hollywood. Very messy. Especially if Charly's closely guarded secret falls out of her closet.
Vaughn discovers that his girlfriend has been cheating on him with his best friend on national television during an interview. Vaughn was more upset about losing his best friend than his girlfriend. After the break up Vaughn jumps into the party scene, drinking and women. To get the job that will make his career he must clean up his act, no drinking and no women while filming.
Charly is hired to work as the wardrobe assistant on Vaughn's new movie. Vaughn is one of her favorite actors and her celebrity crush, she is so excited to be working with him on such a huge project. On the first day of working with Vaughn she accidentally sticks him with a pin in a very painful, inappropriate place, his penis.
What starts out as fun & casual soon turns serious as Vaughn and Charly fall for each other and they both realize they want more. Charly is keeping a secret, she was on her way to tell him, before she can tell him, he finds out from the press. Once again, he feels humiliated and refuses to talk to Charly.
I loved the interactions and banter between Vaughn and Charly, especially her feistiness towards him. I had a huge smile reading this.
