Más información sobre el libro

With the same flair as her debut novel, Olivia Goldsmith presents a sharp, sassy Cinderella story set in Hollywood. Mary Jane Moran, never considered beautiful, has just lost the off-Broadway role she created and the only man she ever loved, both taken by the unforgiving industry that deems her too fat, too plain, and too old at thirty-four. Stripped of power as an actress and a woman, Mary Jane resolves to transform her life by purchasing beauty. After two years, forty pounds, and a staggering sixty-seven thousand dollars spent on surgeries, she re-emerges as the stunning Jahne Moore, ready to seize her moment in the spotlight. In Los Angeles, she lands a role in the hit TV series, *Three for the Road*, alongside two other women with their own troubled pasts. Sharleen Smith, raised in poverty, is an easy target for Hollywood's unscrupulous players, while Lila Kyle, determined to outshine her famous mother, risks everything to be the sole star of the show. As the trio ascends to fame, their pasts resurface in scandalous ways. Jahne's former lover, now a successful director, seeks her out, igniting her hopes and fears. Meanwhile, Sharleen's traumatic history makes tabloid headlines, and Lila's desperate moves backfire, leading to a scandal that could unravel them all.
