REVIEW:

I have to admit, I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book when I received it, but then again, this is why I love doing reviews. There are a lot of books I would never think of reading, but then they are handed to me and I have to read them to do a review. This is one of those books that makes be grateful to be able to do this. The characters are multi-dimensional, smart, funny, sharp, damaged, flawed and believable. The book takes place in my home town, Los Angeles, and Barbara Morgenroth knows her geography. She also knows her industry.

I was so engaged by the relationships in this story, I read it in one sitting, then immediately bought the second book… which I read last night. And I hope there’s a third book coming out, because Barbara does like cliff hangers. Having said that, I don’t mind cliff hangers and I LOVED this book!! Kip is an independent, smart, talented girl and although at times she seems much older than she is, we understand why, but then the author shows us this glimpse of a young girl and we are reminded, she’s not a gown up yet. The agents are all totally accurate, the actors as well. The book is like an onion that has layers and layers of story. I guess i could go on, but this story is truly phenomenal and it is an unbelievable ride. Hurry with Book 3 please!!
