About the Book

Book: Made in Hollywood

Author: Michelle Keener

Genre: Christian Contemporary Romance

Release Date: March 10, 2020

When a pastor’s son saves her life, can a prodigal daughter dare to believe in second chances?

Noah Shaw is almost thirty and he still doesn’t know what he wants to be when he grows up. Torn between running his business as a limo driver for Hollywood’s elite, and feeling called to ministry, he prays for direction. But he never expects that direction to include finding a woman near-death on the front steps of his father’s church.

Hannah left her family and her faith when she moved to Hollywood looking for adventure. Instead of finding fame in the movies, she was lured into the life of an exotic dancer. Hopeless and ashamed, suicide seems like her only escape. Until the night Noah saves her life.

The Shaw family welcomes her into their home and gives her a chance to start over. When the shadows of her former life threaten to expose her past, she must choose between running away or fighting for the new life she’s built and the man she’s grown to love.

My Thoughts

A moving and inspiring story. Talk about redemption, nothing speaks that more than this book.
There’s something about prodigals Hannah was a wonderful character. Her story pulled me in from the start wanting to know more. She was looking for a life of fame and possibly one far away from all she knew as a preachers daughter. Caught in a web of self destruction and near death, she’s found by Noah and begins to build her life again. I loved her growth process throughout the story. Her determination to protect those she cared about and how she was finally able to stand firm against the man who was determined to destroy her.
I didn’t read the first book in the series but didn’t feel like I missed much. I loved the Shaw family, getting to know them and seeing their faith in action, it was a beautiful example.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author via Celebrate Lit for a blog tour. All opinions expressed are solely mine.

The Story of a Prodigal Daughter

Made in Hollywood is the sequel to my first Christian romance novel Mission Hollywood. It’s the story of Lily’s brother Noah and his search for love and direction. In the book, Noah meets a young girl who has been through some truly dark and terrible places. She’s been wounded, abused, and she’s lost hope. She’s worried that her past is too much for God to forgive, and that she’s fallen too far and doesn’t deserve God’s grace. She is a prodigal daughter lost on the streets of Hollywood.

One of the reasons I wrote Made in Hollywood (aside from the fact that I just adore Noah) is to be a reminder that God never gives up on us. Just like the story of the Prodigal Son, if we turn back to God, He will run to us and bring us home.

There is no place so dark that God light can’t reach.

There is no sin, no mistake, no circumstance that can separate us from the love of God. His arms are always open to us. His love is unchanging, unending, and unfailing. His amazing grace reaches the lost and restores what was broken. His love binds our wounds and heals our past. What the enemy intended for evil, God will turn to good. It’s a truth Hannah had to learn. It’s a truth I had to learn. And it’s a truth God wants His people to share. God’s love never fails.

I hope you enjoy Made in Hollywood!
