Hassie Calhoun

From the first page, Ms. Pamela Cory and her character, Hassie Calhoun, had me hooked. Not only was it a page-turner, but it was close to my heart because of my own career as a female singer/songwriter. From that point forward, I was totally hooked and couldn’t read fast enough! The story took me back to the days of Vegas when the Rat Pack and the greatest singers of all time ruled the strip. I was literally transported to Vegas, and having never visited Vegas, Ms. Cory, not only allowed me to experience the city, but she took me on a trek filled with intrigue, wondering what Hassie would do next, and what it must have been like during those days of Vegas.

Pamela Cory is an amazing author who cleverly weaves the story of Hassie Calhoun. Pamela’s descriptive style clearly paints a picture of each character, making them so real to the reader. At times, I found myself scratching my head at Hassie’s behavior, but it served to make me curious about her next moves, thus making this book a real page-turner.

The period details, including a cameo appearance by JFK, are nicely done and make the book even more interesting. This would be a great choice for book clubbers, who could spend an evening wrestling with an age-old question: why do women who should know better keep coming back to men who treat them so badly?

Corey does a great job in continuing the story of Hassie Calhoun. She is such a loveable character but continues to make bad decisions. I want to whisper to her, “Don’t do that,” but she doesn’t listen. Corey’s excellent writing skills, her usage of music, poetry, and mythology make this a great read.
