About this ebook
From the New York Times bestselling author of THE FIRST WIVES CLUB.
Mary Jane Moran was an ambitious New York stage actress who lost the role of a lifetime and the one man she loved—all because Hollywood thought she was too plain and too old to star in the movies. But M.J. knew what she had inside—she just needed a little help bringing it out. Two years, forty pounds, sixty-seven thousand dollars, and a full round of nips, tucks, lipos, and implants later, the Broadway gypsy moth emerged a gorgeous butterfly with a new name and a new body: Jahne Moore was svelte, sexy, and ripe for the big time.
Now Jahne and her two co-starlets-in-arms—ruthless L.A. native Lila Kyle and sweet Texas belle Sharleen Smith—are making their move on the West Coast. Television's top creator wants them in the season's white-hot new series. But as the starlets climb furiously to the top, they struggle to hide the secrets of their pasts. And Jahne Moore gives her most convincing performance when the same man who once broke her heart begs her to star—both in his show and his life.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5How can I get the 13 hours it took me to read this back? I should have stopped reading at 30%, but I kept thinking that this is Olivia Goldsmith -it HAS to get better, right?It was bad enough that you needed a score card to remember all the character's in this dreck book, but the whining of the main character's got me to the point that I had hoped they had all had something terrible happen to them.Poor them-they are lovely, they are popular, they are making million's - my heart bleeds. Yes they have no privacy, but choosing this career path was, as I said-a choice.To make matters for me worse, I went to amazon while still on my Kindle to read the reviews to see if anyone thought the same as I did -and one of the reviewers ruined a VERY important plot point.The book does seem to pick up at the 75%, but by then I was skimming for good parts and it really got interesting at the end. However, it was mostly ruined by Jahnes' whining (love that spelling *rolling my eyes*good grief)Stay far, far away even though it only costs $2.99 on Kindle and on Nook!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Olivia Goldsmith does the world of Hollywood well, and this book is no exception. She takes three young women, two new to Hollywood and one child of stars, and follows their trip to and through Hollywood.The book is fun to read in spots, but in others it dragged awfully for me. The last 50 pages I was gasping for the end. But I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoyed Goldsmith OR Hollywood fiction.
