La última gran diva de Hollywood, Eve Benedict, está dispuesta a publicar sus memorias, en las que pretende explicar todos y cada uno de los secretos mejor guardados entre la alta sociedad de Beverly Hills. Para ello contrata los servicios de Julia Summers, una reputada biógrafa de las estrellas del cine que desea preservar su vida tranquila y sin sobresaltos emocionales. Pero el hijastro de Eve, un apuesto novelista, tiene sus motivos para impedir que la biografía salga a la luz… y para asediar el corazón aparentemente cerrado de Julia.

Good not great. Fairly typical contemporary romance. ( )

Eve Benedict, queen of Hollywood, has decided at the end of a fruitful career to have her memoirs written. She hires Julia Summers to do the job, with the bonus intention of hooking Julia up with Eve's stepson, Paul. Unfortunately, Eve knows many secrets about some very powerful and dangerous individuals, one of whom will kill to keep them from coming to light. The first chapter reveals that someone does kill Eve, and that Julia is being charged with the murder.
Nora Roberts has been a queen of romantic novels for several decades now, and though this is some of her earlier work, it proves she deserves the title. The plot is suspenseful, the chemistry between Julia and Paul crackles, and Eve's recollections of earlier times are richly imagined. My only complaint is that the lives of the characters seem too conveniently interwoven to be true, but it is necessary to the plot. I was quite surprised as to who the murderer turned out to be, and very much sucked in to the lives of these characters. ( )

good, but little too long. ( )
