Story Behind The Book

Reviews

&quot;A lively first novel. Highly recommended.&quot;<br /><br /><em><strong>Library Journal</strong><br /><br />&quot;Brilliant! I recommend <strong>The Program</strong> to every woman who feels insecure about her ody because she thinks she weighs too much. In fact, I recommend <strong>The Program</strong> to every woman! Charlie Lovett has managed to weave romance, intrigue, suspense and mystery into this story while clearly depicting the insecurities of women who don't like their bodies and how far they will go to become what they think (or society tells them) is the 'perfect woman.'&quot;<br /><br /></em><strong>Pat Ballard<em><br /></em></strong>author of <strong><em>The Best Man,<br />Abigail's Revenge </em></strong>&amp;<em><br /><strong>Dangerous Curves Ahead: Short Stories</strong></em><br /><br />&quot;The size-positive characters are heartfelt and quirky, the suspense keeps building and the bombshell on page 25 is not to be missed. Enjoy!&quot;<br /><br /><strong>Lynne Murray<em><br /></em></strong>author of <strong><em>Larger Than Death</em><br /></strong><em><br /></em>
