Full Description:
With her love life and career in shambles, struggling actress Alaina Ackerman heads home. The last thing she expects is to be happy, especially when fate practically embeds an abandoned puppy and her old flame, Markus Klein, into her life. 

Now, torn between a love she thought she lost, and one she never knew existed, fate dangles Alaina’s dream opportunity -- a leading role -- in front of her. Her only problem… Going after her dream could jeopardize her chance at love.

As if a new puppy, love, and career aren’t complicated enough, Alaina discovers that her mother and sister are keeping a secret from her. The revelation might be just enough to get Alaina’s life heading in the right direction … or send her over the edge.
Note: Down on Her Luck is a stand-alone story, NO CLIFFHANGER!
You DO NOT have to read any of my other books to know what's going on!
However, if you like to take your books further, I'll tell you a secret... Down on Her Luck runs parallel with the last third of Some Lucky Woman.
