Publisher Description
New York Times bestselling author and television star Lisa Rinna delivers a “dishy” (Huffington Post) and deliciously revealing novel, a titillating Hollywood drama packed with sexy secrets and juicy scandal.
In this town, you’re either it or you’re out.
Glamorous parties, paparazzi, red carpets—Tally Jones has worked hard to join Hollywood’s A-list since she moved to Los Angeles. She finally gets her break on the hit nighttime soap opera Dana Point with a coveted role that allows the former small-town girl to trade her crisp waiter uniform for a breathtaking ball gown and an Emmy nomination. With her real-life leading mean, film producer Mac Carlton, by her side, Tally is living the Hollywood dream—until veteran diva Susie Sheppard schemes to oust the starlet from the limelight. Susie sharpens her claws to snap Mac and sets out to ruin Tally’s life completely. But Tally won’t go down without a fight. She’s determined to bring down her on- and off-screen nemesis and claim the sparkling happy ending she deserves.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Soap star/entrepreneur/self-improvement guru Rinna whips up a breezy, good tart versus bad tart Tinseltown tale where the women are hot, the men are weaklings, and ambitions are unbridled. Struggling actresses Tally, Sadie, and Mandy finally get a break Tally scores a part on a hit TV series; smart and opportunistic Sadie lands a job with superagent Josh Gold; and fake-chested Mandy proves a natural at Dandy Candy porn studios. Their love lives are another matter altogether. Tally hooks up with Hollywood hunk and morally corrupt Gabriel, who makes an unholy alliance with Tally's nemesis that scotches Tally's chance at true love and a meaningful career. Sadie's boss-then-husband Josh falls victim to his dormant drug habit, with disastrous results. Only Mandy makes the sleaze factor work for her. Glammy, savvy, a little trashy, and a lot of fun, this insider's take on getting ahead in Hollywood may be unapologetically short on substance, but it's long on entertainment.
