A Short Story
Struggling actress, Bree McQueen, (Big) has been dumped by her
girlfriend, she’s been fired and is about to be evicted from her home. Bree’s
rich grandmother, Bertha Biederman, is usually forthcoming with a loan. But not
on this occasion. Bertha is leaving Big to fend for herself while she goes off
for a month long vacation. She gives Big $500 to water her plants and a bag of
old clothes and wigs to donate to goodwill.
Big has an ingenious plan. She dresses up as her grandmother
and moves into her grandmother’s place at the Sandcastle Cove Retirement
Community. Why not? After all, she’s always being told how much her and her
grandmother look alike. Will Big be able to pull the scam off? Then there is the
crush Big has on her grandmother’s nurse, Amber. How can she romance her dressed
as her eighty year old grandmother?
A hilarious, side splitting short story with wonderful
multi-faceted well developed characters. My absolute favorite is grandmother
Bertha. The scenic settings and the interaction between all the characters is
superb. Although this book is basically a comedy, there is a sweet and tender
love story simmering away just waiting to be unleashed.
