The Second Angie, Front and Center Story:The reason why Angie's spa is so successful is simple: she keeps a database where she tracks every juicy detail of her clients' lives (in order to serve them better, of course, she's not a busy body). So when she realizes one of her customers is her new half-sister-in-law Giada, she also discovers Giada is hiding a secret about her past from Angie's family. Although not sure what to do with the information, Angie is sure she wants to know why Giada is lying. Giada's attempts to spend more time with Angie only increases Angie's curiosity. Her sudden friendliness just seems too coincidental and suspicious. What does Giada want from her? Of course getting to the bottom of Giada's mysterious past would be easier if she wasn't behind at work and if she wasn't mentoring an an accident-prone, left-at-the-altar bride with no job skills. Lisa Shiroff is a comedic fiction writer celebrating the often unnoticed but beautifully bizarre in life.For years, she worked professionally as a corporate freelance writer and graphic designer. Not only can she Photoshop her way into a royal wedding, but she can write a PR piece that will make a cat in a tattered wolf costume sound like a Westminster Dog Show champion.But the struggle to keep her tongue out of her cheek was giving her TMJ symptoms and she decided she'd had enough. It was time she joined the ranks of those intent on using humor to balance out the negatives in the universe.Now she is unleashing her comedic perspective on anyone willing to take the risk to read whatever she writes.Having spent her formative years in small-town America, Lisa mastered the ability to amuse herself and others with tales about people we all wished lived next door (and some who really did). Now she's bringing those stories to light in novels with funny characters experiencing sometimes inane circumstances and always finding happy endings (yes, she's a sucker for them).Almost living the American Dream, Lisa lives in south Jersey with her husband, two kids, and a dog. Alas, she has no picket fence.
