Melissa Brown (1)

A fun, sexy surprise. Drama within a drama. Red Carpet Kiss is not your average love story. Set in the backdrop of show biz, it's anything but ordinary. The world of fame, television and make believe adds an element of mystique.

So Daphne always catches the bouquet at every wedding she attends. Why isn’t she married? After catching the bouquet so many times, one would expect her to not be single eventually. Well, she cannot let go of the one boy who she thought always held her heart. She cannot overlook the way he truly treated her. Sure she admits he broke her heart, but she doesn’t admit to his faults that blinded her so many years ago.
