Becky Brandon (nee Bloomwood) is in Hollywood! She's hanging out with
celebs . . . or at least she will be, once her husband Luke introduces
her to his new A-list client Sage Seymour.
Becky sets her heart on a new career – she's going to be a stylist to
the stars! And when a chance encounter thrusts her into the limelight,
she grabs her opportunity. But in between choosing clutch bags and
chasing celebrities, Becky loses touch with her family and her best
friend . . .
Caught up in the whirlwind of Tinseltown, has Becky gone too far this time?
Nayu's Thoughts
Although Becky acts totally opposite to me and is outrageous in
her thoughts and actions, I couldn't stop reading her tale. She went
from one disaster to another, most definitely viewing the world with
rose-coloured glasses. It was shocking how she changed as a person
and thought more highly of her fame than was realistic. How she
treats her friends and family
wasn't kindly, and while I know she learnt a lesson by the end, I
seriously doubt she will change hugely as a person before her next
adventure.
I did think that she needed to leave the past in the past,
and practice forgiveness & moving on when it came to her
so-called nemesis. But then it made sense seeing as she is a
shopaholic it seems natural for her to have neurotic tendencies. I'm
now on the look out for the other books in the series – I want to
know what happened before and after she had her daughter, and what
really happened with her nemesis who does help more than hinder her.
Becky learns that beig self-centred doesn't win friends and
pushes people who stood by her in the past right away. Fame is
fickle, true friendship & love isn't.
