Perfect escapism for fans of Penny Vincenzi and Jilly Cooper.
Cat fears she is past her prime. Her philandering husband, Ivan, who she still loves passionately after twenty years of marriage, leaves her for a younger woman. Devastated, there is only one person left who Cat trusts.
Kendall is sure she has it all. But underneath her tough exterior she hides a vulnerability she is helplessly struggling with an unrequited love. But when Kendalls need for success consumes her, she wont let anyone stand in her way.
Ava is an innocent, plucked from obscurity and thrown into the deep-end of the glamorous world of fame. When she is pitted against Kendall, the world watches closely, wondering who will survive.
As these three women try to navigate a backstabbing world of infamy, desire and fortune, will they be tempted to betray the people they hold dearest
