Look Out for Falling Stars Charlotte “Lottie” Love has a thing for celebrity. Actually, it’s more of an obsession. All her life she’s lurked in the shadows of Hollywood, desperate to step into the light. When she lands a job at Personality magazine, her dreams of red-carpet strolls, popping flashbulbs, and the attention of white-hot heartthrobs finally start to come true. Even Hollywood’s latest “It” boy falls for her, and everyone wants his story. Can Lottie score the scoop? Ask Lem Brac, a British boozehound in the twilight of a mediocre career who knows an exclusive with the It boy would save his job. Lem looks for help from his new (and only) friend—Mike Posner, a young hotshot reporter just hired away from a New York tabloid. But Mike has some damaging secrets himself that are about to surface. He needs the interview too, and it’s anyone’s guess how far he’ll go to get it. Welcome to the world of entertainment journalism and star worship, where you’re only as good as the gossip you dig up. Written by a former People magazine correspondent who knows the underbelly of Hollywood hearsay all too well, They’re Not Your Friends slips past the velvet rope and grants access to a wickedly funny—and sometimes scary—celebrity magazine scene.

TFitz offers a no holds barred view in regards to any sort of interaction with law enforcement, and offers practical advice to help you when the time comes. At 20 years old, his residence was surrounded by jump-out boys, claiming probable cause for a search after illegally entering the home’s curtilage and smelling marijuana. He was told later, an informant claimed dope was being cooked there. They left with nothing but a few people in handcuffs and a small amount of marijuana. At 23 he was pulled over for improper lane usage. Sober, yet refused to blow. Much money and time later, he was found not guilty of any charges. That night the arresting officer had broken the record for number of DUI arrests. Currently he is doing all he can to fight for the most important person in his life, his son. He is an outstanding father & role model, and there is nothing in the world he wouldn’t do to protect Zeke (his son). He has been awaiting trial for 1.5 years on false accusations of domestic violence. During that time he has met many others who have family members currently jailed over lies and others’ abuses of our legal system. He is doing his part to help change that with the organization Women Against False Accusations. If you are interested, search TFitz on YouTube; he’ll be there. Please send prayers and love to all.
