About this ebook
From the New York Times–bestselling author of The First Wives Club: This novel about an aging actress’s revenge on Hollywood is a “hoot” (Entertainment Weekly).
Mary Jane Moran was an ambitious New York stage actress who lost the role of a lifetime and the one man she loved—all because Hollywood thought she was too plain and too old to star in the movies. But M. J. knew what she had inside—she just needed a little help bringing it out.
Two years, forty pounds, sixty-seven thousand dollars, and a full round of nips, tucks, lipos, and implants later, the Broadway gypsy moth emerged a gorgeous butterfly with a new name and a new body. The woman now called Jahne Moore was svelte, sexy, and ripe for the big time.
Jahne and her two sisters-in-arms—one ruthless LA native and one sweet Texas belle—are making their move on the West Coast. Television’s top creator wants them in the season’s white-hot new series. But as the starlets climb furiously to the top, they struggle to hide the secrets of their pasts. And Jahne Moore must give her most convincing performance ever when the same man who once broke her heart begs her to play a starring role—both in his show and in his life . . .
“[A] juicy novel about Hollywood celebrities and secrets.” —Publishers Weekly
“Compulsively readable.” —Daily News (New York)
“Delicious and satisfying.” —Detroit Free Press

This really must be and has to be the best novel i have ever read,how creative and artistic for Olivia to have put this baby together. Sadly though Marry Jahne didnt get to have Sam at the end after all she went through to prove she can be as beautiful too. Mary Jane was a good actress but couldnt get acting job because of her looks. Her Grandmother had made her feel bad about her looks her entire life and now the man she loved had left her for hollywood. She goes thru Surgery and becomes beautiful and acceptable in hollywood...but its not as she anticipated.... FAME IS NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.
