What happens when a forgotten denture commercial makes you the most famous woman in Hollywood?

BunnyLee Welles never wanted the spotlight. But when she returns to Los Angeles for her best friend’s wedding, she discovers that an old Dial-a-Denture commercial she filmed years ago has gone viral—and suddenly everyone knows her face.

From baggage clerks to Lyft drivers to opportunistic media types, the city greets BunnyLee like a celebrity she never meant to become. As her accidental fame spirals, old acquaintances return with new agendas, strangers feel entitled to a piece of her, and Hollywood’s endless hunger for relevance threatens to swallow her whole.

Then a fading television heartthrob with troubles of his own offers her refuge. With a mischievous puppy, a borrowed vintage Mustang, and her life slipping further beyond her control, BunnyLee is swept into a wild odyssey through wrestlers, wannabes, reinvention, and America’s obsession with fame.

Witty, poignant, and sharply observed, Five Times Lucky is a novel about celebrity, illusion, and the strange gap between who we are and who the world decides we must be.
