Will star-bound and reckless millennial Casey Singer trade “finally famous” for “love at last”?
Casey is a self-proclaimed brat who trusts no one. This B-list actress and model uses her body and brains to acquire superstar status, having become skilled at covering up her hard-bought scars along the way with makeup and stage lights. Far from being an overnight success, Casey has threatened to tank her career on more than one occasion with her straight-up disregard for the rules, but now, and worse yet—it appears that she is about to break one of her own. After a walk-off stint as a TV weather girl in Kansas, Casey is struck by love when a handsome record executive with soulful eyes accidentally hits her with his car on an icy pavement. Casey literally falls for him, but in addition to having a heart-stopping smile, he appears to have a secret life that keeps him just out of reach. No matter. Casey has zero room in her life for anything as unpredictable as romance. And, as luck would have it, is now slated for the job of her dreams as the millennial celebrity chosen to co-host a new cutting-edge network talk show, The Gab.
When the ultimate moment of truth arrives, Casey is forced to make a crucial and impossible choice—her career, or the toughest role of her life?

Romance author La Costa Reed's life is an open book, but will one well-guarded secret threaten to tarnish it all?
From the dirt lots of West Memphis to the streets of L.A., young Mayella Jackson changes her name and manages to completely reinvent herself. After rising from the snares of the adult entertainment world, stripping in an esteemed gentlemen’s club in the city, the new La Costa lands a good job and a fresh start in Nevada as an office assistant. Later, she joins forces with business owner, Georgia Byrne, a celebrity relic in the modeling industry. Together they forge a rather unorthodox family as La Costa, a single mother of a five-year-old son, Lucas, joins Georgia, her mentor, boss, and newfound muse, in the renovation of a nineteenth-century beach house in the Carolinas.
Thanks to a twist of fate, La Costa is commissioned to write Georgia’s biography, which garners the attention of the publishing industry, and soon catapults the unknown writer’s career to best-selling status as the author of contemporary romance and thrillers. Now, after eighteen years with the release of her own controversial tell-all memoir, paired with an offer to co-host Global Network’s newest talk show, this highly acclaimed genre queen is about to meet the two most shocking plot twists of her life.
