SCAM A-LAMA PAYBACK
CON THE ROCK STAR SERIES BOOK 3
GREED, LUST, BETRAYAL, REVENGE, and the irresistible pull of stardom. It’s quite a package for one book – that’s SCAM A-LAMA PAYBACK.
Rock Star Marc Charles’ former music publisher, the arrogant and rapacious Rodney Farquhar Rappaport, had been scamming him for years.
Now that Marc has a new No.1 hit song, Rodney wants Marc back on his books again. But will Rodney’s treatment of a former employee be his undoing?
Will Marc have the nerve to pull off the plot twist of a lifetime and make a killing?
As that master storyteller Alfred Hitchcock famously said,
“Revenge is sweet, and not fattening.”
At the end, will Marc laugh all the way to the bank, or is this just a pipe-dream?
Lust? Marc’s too busy promoting his new album. So, who’s Samira making out with behind his back?
