Shannon McKenna is a shy production assistant with big dreams and even bigger phobias, most of which relating to her double-digit figure. She coasts along quite comfortably in the "Shadows," where she lives vicariously from her fingertips as an aspiring writer.
When a nefarious coworker steals her idea for a hot new dating reality show, she and her best buddy, Jake, concoct an idea to star in this newest production, where they can control it from the inside out . There would be a house full of traditional bachelorettes, and Jake would be the bachelor out to win their hearts, with Shannon portraying the "mole" to weed through the pack to find the right girl for her BFF.
Rather than the typical, superficial hookup game of dating shows past, however, handsome, hunky Jake will eventually choose everygirl Shannon, giving the country a true underdog to champion and putting an entirely new face on love. The problem? The more they fake their relationship, the harder Shannon finds herself falling for real. She realizes that she is head over heels for her best friend just in time to fight twenty other women for his heart.
"Love Plus One" is the first of Ginger Voight's Rubeneseque romances, written for any girl who thought she had to change to win the man of her dreams.
"Ginger has the amazing ability to write in a variety of genres, from hot romance to straight horror to hilarious comedy, which is a talent few writers possess. Some of Ginger's work is bold and sometimes uncomfortable, because she often deals with issues many of us would rather turn away from. Yet in other works, she gives us one hell of a good time with characters you can never forget once you've met them!" - author Marie D. Jones
Ginger Voight is a prolific author and freelance writer, as well as an optioned screenwriter. Her non-fiction covers a wide range of topics from travel to politics, and her fiction is equally diverse. She covers mainstream fiction with darker topics, such as DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS, as well as family-friendly fare like her fun kids' adventure, COMIC SQUAD.
Thanks to a steady diet of Harlequin romances as a pre-teen, Ginger always manages to find her way back home to her first love: genre romance. In 2011, she embarked on a new journey - to publish romance novels starring women who look more like the average American woman. She plucked plus-size characters from the supporting cast of most mainstream fiction and allowed them to star in their very own fairy tales. These "Rubenesque" romances have developed a following thanks to her best-selling GROUPIE series. Other titles, such as LOVE PLUS ONE, THE UNDISCIPLINED BRIDE and the highly-rated New Adult series, FIERCE, tap into the "reality-TV" preoccupation in American entertainment, which gives her contemporary stories a current, pop culture edge.
Known for writing gut-twisting angst, Ginger is unafraid to push the envelope with characters that are perfectly imperfect. Whether rich, poor, sweet, selfish, gay, straight, plus-size or slender, her characters are beautifully flawed and three-dimensional. They populate these lavish fictional landscapes that teach us more about the real world in which we live, simply through their interaction with each other. Her goal with every book is to give the reader a little bit more than they were expecting, told in stories they'll never forget.
