The Absolute Ultimate Hollywood Trashy Novel!

Do you want this book? If you're facing a long plane trip, a week at the beach, minor surgery, or a case of the flu, you NEED this book. Mike Walker of the National Enquirer gives us everything inquiring minds want to know about Charmain Burns, ravishing Southern sex goddess with a pathological temper streak, serious firearms, no inhibitions, and studly playmates of several sexes. Even as your conscience is whispering, "God, is this trash," all the rest of you is cheering, "Bleeping A! " And the pages just fly by. The story never slows down and the characters are just similar enough to ones we have read about on Walker's usual turf to make us wonder. I hope Mike Walker is a lightning typist and has many, many more ideas for books. A star is born.

Malicious Intent

Like the "Godfather," this is one of those rare booksthat you just can't put down. It's laugh-out-loud funny,fast-paced, and sex-x-x-y. Just when you thought that Hollywood glitzhas worn thin the proverbial carpet, here's a juicy read that's as new and riviting and outrageous as its author - who's on the National Enquirer TV show and on Howard Stern. It's no wonder Howard loves this guy. He`s got all this inside scandal.And if you read between the lines, you'll recognize who these celebrities are. Walker does an end run past the stars and Hollywood powerbrokers who would otherwise sic their lawyers on him to shut him up -or their henchmen to bust his kneecaps. Hollywood is bound to make a movie of this, but no film can get inside the heads of these intriguing characters the way this book does. You want a great read? This book is for you.

Amazing -- No Mention Yet of This Book in The Natl Enquirer

I've been buying The National Enquirer religiously at the grocery for about seven years now, but the first I heard of Mike Walker's novel was when I heard him on "Louisiana Live" the other day. I got the book at the library, and read it in one night. National Enquirer -- why you hiding this great book under your bushel?

All Negatives -- except for the Reader

I can see why the National Enquirer wouldn't like this book. It tells us readers how they gather their info on the stars. I can see why Hollywood might not like it. It seems like a collection of ruthless people in a mostly unpleasant, high-stakes place. And I can see why elitist book editors would look down their noses at this book -- it's writtem after all, by a card-carrying member of the tawdry tabloids. I have no connection with those worlds. I'm just a regular reader looking for a good story, and I sure as heck found it in Malicious Intent.

Gossip Guru Delivers Delicious TinselTown Tall Tale

I got the inside scoop on the raciest, most entertaining novel of the season. Mike Walker's Malicious Intent is a non-stop thrill ride through the dangerous and spectacular world that is Hollywood. And let me tell you, it ain't no Disneyland. Charmain Burns is a sexual predator, a vengeful starlet with a sordid past and a few secrets she doesn't want shared. Cameron Tull, a big-time Gossip guru, will stop at nothing to uncover the truth. This story sizzles with deceit and seduction -- two things Hollywood thrives on. And Mike Walker should know-- he's been a top-notch gossip reporter for years and still going strong! So put the kids to bed, slip into something slinky, and grab your copy of Malicious Intent. In Hollywood, the night is always young. Also recommended: Jackie Collins -- Hollywood Wives Jacqueline Susann -- Valley of the Dolls Danielle Steele -- Lucky
