"Exquisite and delicious...Katie Cotugno has outdone herself."â??Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of Daisy Jones & The Six and Malibu Rising

Sparks fly and things get real in this sharply sexy and whip-smart romantic comedy set against the backdrop of a post #metoo Hollywood from New York Times bestselling author Katie Cotugno

Former child actor Fiona St. James dropped out of the spotlight after a spectacularly public crash and burn. The tabloids called her crazy and self-destructive and said she'd lost her mind. Now in her late twenties, Fiona believes her humiliating past is firmly behind her. She's finally regained a modicum of privacy, and she won't let anythingâ??or anyoneâ??mess it up.

Unlike Fiona, Sam Fox, who played her older brother on the popular television show Birds of California, loves the perks that come with being a successful Hollywood actor: fame, women, parties, money. When his current show gets cancelled and his agent starts to avoid his calls, the desperate actor enthusiastically signs on for a Birds of California revival. But to make it happen, he needs Fiona St. James.

Against her better judgment, Fiona agrees to have lunch with Sam. What happens next takes them both by surprise. Sam is enthralled by Fiona's take-no-prisoners attitude, and Fiona discovers a lovable goofball behind Sam's close-up-ready face. Long drives to the beach, late nights at dive bars . . . theirs is the kind of kitschy romance Hollywood sells. But just like in the rom-coms Fiona despises, there's a twist that threatens her new love. Sam doesn't know the full story behind her breakdown. What happens when she reveals the tr… (altro)

Better than I expected starting off, a quick read. ( )

Sweet but not great. Very quick easy read. ( )

Enjoyed this, but wasn't super blown away. It feels like the reveal is supposed to be more of a gut punch though we've been seeing it coming for some time. ( )

I wish the reveal that happened near the end would have happened way earlier than it did. It felt like a big deal, but the book doesn’t delve deeper into it before the book is already over. Also the romance here isn’t anything special. Which is unfortunate because it felt like it could’ve been with some more depth given to them. ( )

A frivolous fun novel to read about a successful young actress (Fiona) who quit a long running series called Birds of California. Now after several years have passed there is talk of a series reboot and she is the main problem not wanting to do it. Sam, an actor from Birds just had his current series cancelled and is really wanting the reboot. Others connected to the old show encourage him to reconnect with her to change her mind. Thus starts the love/hate relationship that will carry the plot till the end. ( )
