A Young Adult Series created by Ruth Glick and Eileen Buckholtz and Published 1988-1989 by Pageant Books.
On the surface, Charisma, Inc. is just a high-profile talent agency with gorgeous girls. But under that veneer, it's a private detective agency whose employees all double as undercover operatives as the need arises. The series follows three women - Samantha St. James, Amber Carson, and Kelly Ryan - on a number of adventures and mixes action, mystery and teen romance in each title.
Ten books were published as follows:

- On Edge - Samantha poses as a figure skater in an attempt to find a European bent on defecting...before his countrymen do!
- Risky Venture - Playing bodyguard to a racehorse takes Amber out to the Bluegrass state and into danger.
