    What Happens in Hollywood Universe Series

    About this series

    Hollywood Gossip

    Jack

    I never had anything, growing up. I was a homeless orphan doing what I could to survive.

     

    One night, I got lucky DJing and a record label hired me. My first album took off, but I can't seem to replicate its success.

     

    So instead, I drink. And I party. And I do whatever else I can to avoid my problems.

     

    Until she walked in.

     

    Tate's like no one else I've ever met. She's obsessed with her work. But that's not why I'm drawn to her. She's funny, she's sexy, and she's one of the smartest people I've ever met. And I think she hates me.

     

    I mean, I don't blame her. We couldn't be more different.

     

    But what if…she didn't hate me? Could our workplace collaboration turn into something more, or am I living in a romantic fantasy?

     

    Tate

    What's it really like to grow up rich and famous? Pressure. So much pressure. Unbelievable, inescapable pressure.

     

    My whole life has been about building my brand as an actor and singer. Reaching the top of the Hollywood ladder. I will not let anyone screw it up. Not even Jack.

     

    He's talented, sure, but his work ethic is practically non-existent. I have no time for people like him.

     

    Yet I'm weirdly drawn to him and I can't work out why.

     

    He's so different to anyone else I've ever met, so completely outside of my celebrity bubble. It's refreshing.

     

    But it's also dangerous. He could completely ruin everything I've spent my whole life building.

     

    Am I about to screw up my whole life for one guy? For one chance at love?

     

    Hollywood Parents

    Tate

    My parents are divorcing after 30 years of marriage.

     

    Oh, and I just accidentally found out I'm adopted. Cue identity crisis.

     

    With parents who won't stop arguing, an ex-boyfriend I can't stop thinking about, a sexy Texan model I've treated terribly, and a career on the rocks, it's no understatement to say that my chipper demeanour is under threat.

     

    But I can totally handle it.

     

    Can't I?!

     

    Jack

    Life isn't nearly as fun as I wait to be.

     

    I think my best friend might be turning into my best frenemies. But how can I be sure?

     

    It's hard to work out when I'm also battling a gruelling touring schedule and might lose my house.

     

    All things considered, I think I'm handling everything pretty well. Aren't I?

     

    Hollywood Drama

    Tate

    I'm so sick of everyone seeing me as—and treating me like—a child star. I'm in my twenties! I'm not a child anymore.

     

    So I'm leaving. My management company. My record label. And the country.

     

    It's time for a fresh start.

     

    If only the rest of the world agreed…

     

    Jack

    I've officially made it as a DJ—I'm doing a residency in Ibiza! It doesn't get much better than spending the summer surrounded by music, sunshine, and parties.

     

    But can I resist the never-ending supply of drink and drugs in the clubbing capital of Europe?

     

    And what does spending the summer away from Tate mean for our relationship?

     

    If you're looking for a serial will they/won't they romantic drama about love, hate, and the pressures of fame, you won't find one that's more of a rollercoaster read than this.
