<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>TV host Miranda Woodruff has built a perfect--but fake--life for herself onscreen. Will everything fall apart when she falls in love for real?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Miranda Woodruff has it all. At least, that's how it looks when she's starring in her homebuilding television show, <i>From the Ground Up</i>. So when her network begins to talk about making cuts, she'll do anything to boost ratings and save her show--even if it means pretending to be married to a man who's definitely not the fiance who ran out on her three years ago.<br/> <br/>When a handsome reporter starts shadowing Miranda's every move, all his digging into her personal life brings him a little too close to the truth--and to her. Can the girl whose entire identity is wrapped up in her on-screen persona finally find the nerve to set the record straight? And if she does, will the life she's built come crashing down just as she's found a love to last?<br/><br/>"Sweet, fun, and faith-filled, Melissa Tagg's <i>Made To Last</i> is a story made to delight lovers of romance and behind-the-scenes reality TV.
