CLP Blog Tours Book Review: Meltdown by Tara Thompson

Tara Thompson is now on tour with CLP Blog Tours and Meltdown
Summary:
NYSSA, internationally renown supermodel, is accustomed to turning heads. As a young girl, her flawless face attracted the wrong kind of attention. She escaped an abusive father and successfully navigated life’s seedy underbelly to become a runway renegade, although not without leaving her share of enemies behind. Lately she’s caught the eye of….

STEVE, handsome hometown hero and soon-to-be Governor of Texas. Unfortunately he’s already married. As Steve publicly dumps his perfect, former Miss Texas wife for Hollywood’s latest ‘It’ girl, his state faces the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression. Will he be able to turn things around, or is he too embroiled in his political sex scandal? His good friend and business partner….

DEMETRI, sexy hedge fund manager, is at the top of his professional game and tries to save his friend from near financial ruin. Yet he’s distracted by Steve’s new girlfriend, who just happens to be Demetri’s old flame. Years ago, Nyssa ran from him and he’s never forgotten her. But why is he still interested? Demetri’s dating….

AISLINN, a woman as brilliant as she is beautiful. Enjoying all the perks of having a billionaire boyfriend, she’s falling fast for Demetri and has no idea that she might be the one getting played. Although she bets big on Wall Street, the largest casino in the world, nothing is more risky than giving her heart away.

In this fun, juicy, glamorous novel, no one is exactly who they appear to be…
And all of them are heading for a MELTDOWN.

Who will rise from the ashes?
Review:
Smart chick lit is a favorite of mine, and I feel that Meltdown can be put into that category. While of course there is talk about romance and betrayal and fashion and love, there is also political situations and some deep discussions on the financial crisis that are weaved in throughout the pages. It was interesting to get into the lives of all the characters highlighted, as they are quite diverse and their worlds are unique and interesting. Sometimes it was a tad overwhelming how many people we get to know and keeping up with all of their storylines, but it still made for an interesting read. I hope there is more coming from Tara Thompson.
