Looking for a romantic comedy that will actually make you laugh out loud? Get ready for a hilarious and heart-warming adventure in Claiming Victory.


Meet Victory Shackleford. At thirty two, she's arguably overweight, undeniably frumpish and the love of her life is a dog. She still lives at home with her father - an eccentric retired Admiral who she considers reckless, irresponsible, and totally incapable of looking after himself. Her father on the other hand thinks Victory is a boring nagging harpy with no imagination or sense of adventure and what’s more, he’s determined to get her married off.

Unfortunately there’s no one in the picturesque yachting town of Dartmouth that Tory is remotely interested in, despite her father’s best efforts. But all that is about to change when she discovers that her madcap father has rented out their house as a location shoot for the biggest Hollywood blockbuster of the year. As cast and crew descend, Tory��s humdrum orderly existence is turned completely upside down, especially as the lead actor has just been voted the sexiest man on the planet…

And as Tory navigates the madness of showbiz, she discovers that love and laughter can be found in the most unexpected places...

Claiming Victory is a delightful and witty tale that will have you laughing out loud and rooting for Tory every step of the way. With its quirky characters, laugh-out-loud moments, and unexpected romance, this book is the perfect escape into a world of comedic mayhem. So grab a copy, sit back, and get ready for a hilarious journey that will leave you smiling from ear to ear!
