Growing up, Madelle
Morgan enjoyed nineteen summers at a cottage in the District of Muskoka,
Ontario, Canada, where lake shorelines are dotted with palatial properties
owned by wealthy families and celebrities. Being neither rich nor famous, she
worked briefly as a chambermaid at a Muskoka resort. She began her engineering
career in Canada’s subarctic, which inspired her debut romantic suspense, Diamond
Hunter. Learn more about Madelle and her books at her website/blog where she tweets and posts about writing, Hollywood, filmmaking, and the
settings for her stories.
Madelle is giving away a “What Happens in Muskoka Stays in
Muskoka” tank top (UK, US, and Canadian readers only) and five ebooks.

Caught on Camera Blog Tour Wrap-up
Today I wrap up an
exciting my first ever blog tour, two-weeks celebrating the launch of Caught on Camera, Hollywood in Muskoka, Book 1. The book, a New Adult, coming-of-age
romantic comedy, is my second published novel.
Who hasn’t dreamed of
a career in Hollywood? Chambermaid Rachel, a tall, skinny, twenty-two-year-old
brunette with ugly glasses, has her heart set on becoming a camera operator and
filming the Hollywood stars she idolizes.
Then she’s asked by the
bride-to-be of a millionaire superhero actor to stand in for a missing
bridesmaid because she fits the dress. A make-up artist transforms Rachel from
plain to pretty. Suddenly Mickey, one of the groomsmen and a talent agent, is very interested.
Rachel discovers at a
disastrous wedding photo shoot that being in
front of a camera is not at all glamorous, and being behind the camera shooting celebrities is not what she expected. Mickey
helps Rachel realize that she has a special talent for a different career in
Hollywood, and that she belongs in his arms instead of behind a camera.
Caught on Camera also features Mopette,
an adorable Maltese scamp crucial to the plot; a multitude of movie references
for anyone who loves all things Hollywood; and a playlist features popular
Canadian artists.
The other books in the series will describe how the groom’s Hollywood
friends and siblings find true love while vacationing in Muskoka. Each book
will explore a career such as screenwriter,
producer, director, and stunt professional. Research into the professions that
create movie magic is a
pleasure because I absolutely love everything
about filmmaking!
Caught on Camera
To achieve her dream of working on Hollywood film sets,
star struck chambermaid Rachel Lehmann needs $35,000 for film school tuition by
the end of the summer. When she’s asked to fill in for a missing
bridesmaid at a movie star’s wedding and pretend to be the bride's cousin,
it’s her big chance to secretly take photos of celebrities and sell them to the
entertainment media! Then Mickey, one of the groomsmen, sweeps her off her
feet.
Mickey McNichol, talent agent
to the stars, believes everyone in show business is out for what they can get.
When he falls hard for the bride’s "cousin", he thinks he’s finally
met a beautiful woman he can trust. But if Rachel betrays the wedding party,
Mickey will ensure she never works in Hollywood.

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this lovely and interesting post since I visited The Muskokas several times during the summer when I lived on Ontario. Vacations there were wonderful. The lakes and area is very special.
