"A Hollywood native from the wrong side of the Walk of Fame makes a play for star status" ("Cosmopolitan") in Shanna Mahin's acclaimed debut novel, called "quite a breakout" by "The New York Times."
Jess Dunne is third-generation Hollywood, but her star on the boulevard has yet to materialize. So when she upgrades her nowhere barista job to personal assistant for a film composer, she falls as hard for the nearness to fame as she does his perfectly designed kitchen. Jess kills at cooking, a talent that only serves her intensifying urge to dig in to Los Angeles s celebrity buffet.
But then Jess s food garners the attention of Eva Carlton, an actress on the rise, and Jess is all too eager to jump ship to Eva s entourage, a decision that threatens to explode all her personal relationships. And when Jess s mother a failed actress who puts the strange in estrangement turns up toting a suitcase full of secrets, Jess must confront the truth she s been running from all her life."
