HOT PINK IN THE CITY, Prizm Books/Torquere Press, 
Release Date: August 19, 2015
Ebook
Purchase from Prizm, Amazon (vendor links will be updated on the author’s site)

Asma Bashir wants two things: a summer fling and her favorite ’80s songs. During a trip to New York City to stay with relatives, she messes up in her pursuit of both. She loses track of the hunk she met on her airplane ride, and she does the most terrible thing she could possibly do to her strict uncle… ruin his most prized possession, a rare cassette tape.


A wild goose chase around Manhattan and Brooklyn to find a replacement tape yields many adventures — blackmail, theft, a chance to be a TV star, and so much more. Amid all this turmoil, Asma just might be able to find her crush in the busiest, most exciting city in the world.

Quote of the Week: “Life is like a lot of jazz-it’s best when you improvise.” George Gershwin

And that’s a wrap! Are you in the hop? Do you hop? (Just kidding.) Want to find out about that rare cassette Asma ruins? Improvise much?

  4. Some days I improvise, and some days fall into routine. Both types are good, as long as I keep a good attitude. 🙂 Have an awesome weekend, C. Lee.
    Congrats to Medeia!

  9. I love the sound of Medeia's book. As for improvising, I think it's good to know when and where to do so, instead of improvising all of the time, because then we'd lose all direction. 🙂

  14. That reminds me of the movie "Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist."
    You didn't win the giveaway on my blog. But you should probably check your email anyway. 😉

  17. I was really impressed with how many entries were in this WEP. As Nicola wrote: Improvising is how we live life — as my hero, McCord, says we are left to live what God left untold in our lives. Thanks for your comment on my entry. I did more than one to further advertise to my friends the challenge. 🙂

  20. Congratulations to all! It's great to hear about the fantastic writing achievements.

    I tend to improvise throughout life. That's what makes it exciting.

    Have a great week everyone!

  22. Congrats Medeia on the new book and glad you are getting the exposure. Congrats to the winners and I love that quote-I hop on occasion:)

  23. Congrats to your 2 lucky winners! Yay to Yolanda and Denise for opening WEP again! Congrats to the amazing Medeia on her new release! 🙂

  26. Hey human superstar celebrity author, Lee,

    Yes, my illustrious human friend, your wait is finally over for an eagerly anticipated comment from me. My alleged human, Gary, is not well and thus, I have to take over commenting.

    Like Gary, I'm not in the slightest interested in any blog hops, blog fests, or anything weirdly bizarre alphabet challenge!

    Congrats to your two winners, Lee!

    Delighted to see mention of the latest release by another one of my adoring human fans, Medeia. She is well nice and hearty congrats to her.

    Of course, as paw usual, consider your pawsting shared!

    Pawsitive wishes and doggy kisses,

    Penny xx

  32. Hi,
    Love the quote by Gershwin. It's true. Coming from the Deep South, life in the summer was enjoyable because I learned how to improvise.
    Shalom,
    Patricia

  41. Congrats to Medeia! Been seeing her book pop up all over the blogosphere lately. Great quote of the week, too. My anxiety makes it hard to improvise sometimes, though, haha!
