The Naked Truth

Marcel Lamothe

Eighteen-year-old Jane Cullen’s journalism assignment was simple: Write a report about Paradise Cove. The catch? It’s a nudist resort. And somehow, that turns out to be the least surprising part of her story. Under the guidance of Bill, the resort’s irrepressibly optimistic owner, and a colorful community of free spirits, philosophers, and found family, Jane begins to question everything she thought she knew about herself. As she navigates from nervous reporter to unlikely art director, she learns that true liberation isn’t about taking your clothes off – it’s about deciding who you want to become. Set on a whimsical tropical island where dress codes are nonexistent but life lessons are abundant, The Naked Truth is a wholesome, warm, and witty celebration of self-creation. Through Jane’s journey, we discover that maybe we’re all just one leap of faith away from becoming who we’re meant to be – even if that leap happens to be from a rooftop, wearing nothing but a smile and a safety harness.
