Thanks NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC. I really enjoyed the old Hollywood feel. The characters were well developed. An enjoyable book all the way through.
The year is 1938 and we are allowed into the past of Hollywood's "Golden Years." We step behind the curtains and read a story about the studio systems, its actors, screenwriters, and top executives. Frances Healy is our protagonist, as she becomes the secretary to a top producer, Lawrence Merritt t VistaGlen Studios The biggest project at the studio is the making of a film of a legendary stage actress who disappeared from the public eye in 1895. Not as easy to do with the legendary star rejecting the making of the film. There are many emotions involved, including loyalties, bonds and ambitions, all of which Frances is witness to. A novel that is hard to put down, this is highly recommended. My thanks to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
A beautiful Old Hollywood-esque tale spanning many different generations. I absolutely adored it. It would make such a great movie. I flew through this book and loved the characters and storyline. Highly recommend especially if you have an interest in the Golden Age of Hollywood.
