A Hollywood icon struggling to revive her career befriends a gifted newcomer with a secret agenda in a twisty short story about the true price of fame by a New York Times bestselling author.

Once Hollywood royalty, Veronica Van Arden has been upstaged by box office flops and tabloid gossip. But when she lands a role in a promising film, a comeback finally seems possible, especially with the support of her young and adoring costar, Sienna Vale. As Veronica weathers a new scandal, Sienna stays firmly by her side, a bright spot in Veronica’s days. But as Veronica welcomes her protégé into every part of her life, they both might find that the brightest lights cast the darkest shadows.

From the Publisher

If I had to sum up this short story in one word, it’s juicy. Each twist in this tale of Hollywood illusions is good to the last drop. But of course, we’d expect nothing less: after all, we’re talking about the author of The Last Mrs. Parrish, soon to be a major motion picture starring Jennifer Lopez. So pop the popcorn, turn out the lights—and watch your back.
