About this listen
When a group of superfans compete to meet their Hollywood idol, things go way off script.
Theodosia and her bestie, Sam, are former high school outcasts who find escapism in a popular TV show called Suffer about a victims’ rights advocate named Marcia Suffer.
When the TV network that owns Suffer announces a contest—the chance to meet the show’s star, actress Roxy DeVine—Theo and Sam pull out all the stops to win. These days, Theo needs a win—any win—because lately life has been dealing her nothing but suffering. After all, the girl’s got a lot on her plate: attending college, working part-time gigs to survive, and acting as caretaker to both her younger sister and an aging aunt. A little Hollywood magic is just what she needs.
As much as Theo and Sam adore Roxy DeVine, the rest of Hollywood despises the diva actress. In fact, rumors swirl that Roxy’s career is on the chopping block. When Roxy DeVine goes missing after the show’s season finale, it’s anyone’s guess what happened to her! Superfans Theo and Sam know more than they’re letting on.
Take a painfully funny peek behind the curtain of Hollywood stardom and fandom and find out today: Where in the world is Roxy DeVine?

Story
Bryan Cranston landed his first role at seven, when his father, a struggling actor and director, cast him in a United Way commercial. Soon Bryan was haunting the local movie theater, memorizing and reenacting favorite scenes with his older brother. Acting was clearly the boy's destiny - until one day his father disappeared. Suddenly destiny took a backseat to survival. Seeking something more stable, perhaps subconsciously trying to distance himself from his absent father, Cranston decided on a career in law enforcement.

Wren Roland has never been kissed, but he wants that movie-perfect ending more than anything. Feeling nostalgic on the eve of his birthday, he sends emails to all the boys he (ahem) loved before he came out. Morning brings the inevitable Oh God What Did I Do?, but he brushes that panic aside. Why stress about it? None of his could-have-beens are actually going to read the emails, much less respond. Right? Enter Derick Haverford, Wren's #1 pre-coming-out-crush and his drive-in theater's new social-media intern.

Story
By the time playwright and actor Shawn Frost had won two Tony Awards by his late 20s, he was seen as a theater prodigy—a meteoric rise that the performing arts community had not witnessed in almost a hundred years. His work? Shakespearean in scope, character, and popularity—boundless and beautiful. His own character? Flawed. And in a place like New York City, where failings get magnified, Shawn Frost finds that, even from the heights of artistic sublimity, no one is insulated from the demons that have caused the best of entertainers to fall from grace.

Audio is a unique medium. It invites listeners to become a part of the process, to interpret what they hear, however they'd like; whereas motion pictures leave no such room for input. With the completion of this book, it dawned on me that, as an actor by trade, I could play the part; and I'm knee-deep in actor pals - why not record the book like a radio play? So that's exactly what happened. I rounded up an excellent troupe of thespians, from both Los Angeles and my home state of Oregon, and we recorded what was to become this epic listen for you to hear!

Critic reviews
"One of the best representations of an autistic person I’ve ever seen in media. The audiobook is narrated by Chelsea Kwoka. She does a wonderful job capturing all of the characters." (Audiofile)
Amazing freshman outing from the author!
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The story centers around a young woman, Theo, who enters a competition with her friends and wins the chance to meet favorite soap-opera star, Roxy Devine. Roxy is a bit of a narcissistic diva who begrudgingly agrees to this social media driven promotion and when she enters the modest home of Theo, the unexpected adventure begins. A.C. Sloan acquaints you with these likeable protagonists along with quirky antagonists which creates an unpredictable story filled with implausible and hilarious plots that resolve with surprising twists.
It's the kind of book you want to read curled up by the fire with your favorite beverage or equally satisfying as an audible choice. I listened to both the Audible version and read parts of the book. The narrator, Chelsea Kwoka, is great. She captures the persona of each character and tells the story with nuance.
If you're looking for a fun escape, this is one way to get away.
A Wonderful Romantic Dram-Com!
