THE PERFECT MATCH by Debbie Fritter

Dear Reader,

I’m not much on putting words to paper, action is more up my alley. In case you didn’t know it, I’m Flame, the reigning champion in the Universal Wrestling World (UWW). So why am I here? Because I’m burning to let you in on the secrets of my profession…professional wrestling. I grew up in a wrestling family and cut my teeth on the squared circle, which by the way is the only “lady” I trust any more. I’ve gone and bought out a small press magazine in Madison, Wisconsin that was going no where fast, hired a woman by the name of Khristen Roberts, who according to the editor-in-chief is untrained and wants nothing more than to be a journalist. Okay, I’m a sucker in helping people out, it’s my one weakness, if I have any. Problem is she’s on vacation in Hawaii. I’ve got to catch up with her somewhere along the line and figure Detroit would be as good as any for her to join up with me and the UWW. I just hope Khristen is up for the ride…it’s always a trip.

Yours truly,

Shadoe Donovan

REVIEWS FOR THE PERFECT MATCH

THE PERFECT MATCH is the perfect read."

"Reporter Khristen Roberts nabs a plumb assignment: write a series of articles for Plain Talk Magazine on pro-wrestling, climaxing with the world wrestling championship bout. No sooner said than... Done... New Plain Talk publisher Shadoe Donovan, aka UWF champion Flame, meets reporter Khristen Roberts on his way to Hawaii. Naturally cautious because of his celebrity, he embroils their relationship in a bout of secrets more intricate than a hammer lock hold. ...Ms. Fritter did a great job in her debut novel building sensuality to a sizzle. She also destroyed many of the myths surrounding professional wrestlers as actors, rather than athletes--in this case, a very sexy athlete."

and BEYOND THE SHADOW

Fans around the world will take a second look at the men, like Flame, who entertain them nightly and see a side of them that is so carefully hidden. Only a caring woman like Khristen Roberts could bring about such a revelation. Ms. Fritter does wonders with a subject never before tapped."

Debbie Fritter has written a winner. THE PERFECT MATCH is filled with just the right combination of wit, charm, and tormented romance. Her characters shared something wonderful that came through with each new word, and caused many a smile to cross my lips while raising my hopes about their future. The humor and sincerity that Ms. Fritter wrote into her story will definitely grab you and hold you for the three count. The sexual tension that was created between Khristen and Shadoe is nothing short of brilliant. Will they, won’t they? My recommendation is that you find out for yourself. You’ll be very glad you did.
