Beth Lauren is a survivor. Determined to bring her film project to the big screen after years of work, Beth falls prey to a professional conman, who swindles her out of her last remaining savings with the promise of a big investment to come. At the same time, Beth falls for a different kind of deceiver-her attorney, who steals her heart even as he claims to be her friend and professional partner. The trauma of this turbulent time brings up long-buried memories of a past assault, and Beth reaches her breaking point, attempting suicide on more than one occasion. Reeling: Misadventures in Moviemaking, Money and Love is the story of one woman’s fall and rise. With unflinching candor, Beth takes us on two different but equally compelling journeys-one the riveting truth of the matter, as Beth seeks justice and pursues healing for her mind, body and soul; the other an imaginary path, as Beth channels her screenwriter’s eye into a cinematic alternative history. This innovative hybrid memoir-screenplay is a romance any lovelorn woman can relate to, a tragedy any survivor can draw inspiration from; and a comedy with laughs for any reader on every page.
