Cheryl Davis's Profile

Annabel Green gets to play
a teen that has everything as a model on a commercial for Kopf’s Department
Store-top student, popular, cheerleader.  What few people realize,
including her own family, is that she’s just the opposite.  Her friends
shun her at school, her sister suffers from a serious eating disorder,
and she doesn’t really find joy in doing her modeling anymore.  In
fact she feels like she’s only doing it to keep her mother happy.

“Hey, I've got no illusions
about love...It comes, it goes, it leaves casualties or it doesn't. People
weren't meant to be together forever, regardless of what the songs say!”
Words from Remy, a girl who doesn't believe in love.  And you can
hardly blame her. Her romance novelist mother is about to get married again
for the fifth time, and her father, a ‘70s hippie singer, died shortly
after she was born, leaving her with a one-hit wonder song to remember
him by. Entitled “This Lullaby,” every time Remy hears it, it seems to
feel like a “bruise that never quite healed right.” So Remy has become
an expert at ending relationships before they ever have a chance to get
serious or cause any hurt. She has rules for keeping the guys she dates
at arms length. But then Dexter, a quirky, klutzy, alterna-band boy inserts
himself into her life, and Remy suddenly finds the carefully constructed
walls around her heart beginning to crumble. This is a love story, no doubt
about it.  A love story with completely believable characters; Remy’s
life embracing mother, three dependable friends, wacky band members, but
especially Remy and Dexter.  And this is a love story about learning
that loving is taking a chance, it’s risking being hurt yes, but it is
also risking really feeling totally and completely alive.  Love is
a leap of faith, and soft landings are never guaranteed. Will Remy ever
decide it is worth the risk? Read This Lullaby and see.
