All She Wrote Books x Amy Spalding: IN HER SPOTLIGHT Release Event

Join All She Wrote Books on Wednesday, February 25th at 6:30pm, as we host author Amy Spalding and Amanda Diehl (Smart Bitches, Trashy Books)! They will discuss Spalding's latest book, In Her Spotlight, a sapphic rom-com starring a franchise Hollywood actress who aims to prove her chops in a theatrical production directed by her ex whose heart she broke a decade earlier. "Inclusivity" isn't just a buzzword to us. We make every effort to ensure our space and events are accessible to and for everyone. If you or someone in your party needs accommodations, please email us at <a href="http://mailto:info@allshewrotebooks.com/">info@allshewrotebooks.com</a>. About In Her Spotlight Hollywood actor Tess Gardner is not the kind of famous she set out to be. She's ready to show she’s more than Princess Platinum of the Vindicators series, a pretty face with CGI superpowers that literally sparkle. Tess wants to prove herself as an actor and that means theatre—the true calling of her thespian heart. But just when Tess lands a part working with an acclaimed stage director, a brewing scandal forces him out. His replacement? None other than hip, buzzy director Rebecca Frisch. The same Rebecca Frisch whose heart a firmly closeted Tess broke over a decade ago during summer stock . . . As Tess wrestles with her lingering guilt and attraction to Rebecca, she also finds herself struggling to rein in her superstar status backstage. When things unexpectedly reignite with Rebecca, Tess bristles even more against the walls of her A-list life. Since the industry’s made it clear that girl-next-door superheroes can’t also be gay, coming out isn’t realistic for Tess. And ultimately, Rebecca will head back to New York and likely seek out a less complicated relationship anyway. Will the curtain close on her chance for happiness or will Tess finally take a leading role in her own life? About the Author Amy Spalding (she/her) is the author of several novels, including For Her Consideration, On Her Terms, and The Summer of Jordi Perez (and the Best Burger in Los Angeles), which was named a best book of 2018 by NPR, the Boston Globe, Kirkus Reviews, and more. She is a recipient of the 2023 Human Rights Campaign Visibility Award for the authentic, funny, and diverse representation of the LGBTQ+ community in her books.  About the Speaker Amanda Diehl (she/her) has had many iterations of bookish jobs from an author publicist to a bookseller and bookstore event coordinator. She's been writing about romance and helping manage the daily stream of editorial content at the website Smart Bitches, Trashy Books for over a decade. In her free time, she enjoys collecting taxidermy, playing video games with smooching mechanics, and making a good gluten-free lasagna.
