Acting Like Adults

Autor Hailey McPherson
en Limba Engleză Paperback
*Disclaimer: This book is a work of fiction. Characters, incidents, alleged crimes and motivations are products of the author's imagination and used fictitiously. Any similarity to persons living or dead is purely coincidental. Especially any living film producer and/or studio executive. Any fictional character that may or may not bear any resemblance was created before his scandals were headline news.* Sooner or later, every star comes to Hollywood to shine. Most will crash and burn quickly. Some are destroyed by powerful men who prey on the women they consider disposable. Only a select few can outlast the competition, outmaneuver the scandals and politics, and outrun the sexual predators. "For every star bright in the sky, there are a million broken dreams down here with the rest of us." Ail-s Rinn was a popular child actor a lifetime ago. When she returns to Los Angeles for her big comeback, nothing seems to go according to plan. Tyler Gardiner moved to Los Angeles to make her dreams come true. She quickly learns that popularity back home means nothing to agents and casting directors in the movie capital of the world. Cheryl Rallius was born and raised in Los Angeles. Sitting on the sidelines of the entertainment industry, she watches the ing'nues come and go. But she knows she wants something more. Marcus Rallius, Cheryl's father, talent agent and friend to his clients. His goal is to nurture bright, young talent and help them shine. He knows that someday he will find that one true star he can take to the top. Jay Pearlman, powerful Hollywood producer and respected member of the entertainment industry. His long resume includes work with some of the most important people in the business. If he is not given what he wants, he takes it. Fillmore Carmichael wants to be rich and famous. Mostly rich. As a reality TV star, fame came quickly. The money is taking its sweet time. Monroe Kortright moved from Middle of Nowhere, Alaska. She assumes that being young, cute and perky is enough. Hollywood assumes she is too naive to survive. Jackson Donelson's graduate degree in acting does nothing to land him the parts he knows he deserves. In an industry where people are hired on appearance first and ability second, higher education is meaningless. Queen Bitch, one of a few million struggling rock bands trying to make it in Los Angeles. They have a recording contract, they have a record, they even have a video or two. What they need is an audience. Matilda, Gage and Joslyn are artists, activists, Bohemians. Experimental and avant-garde, they work on the fringes of Hollywood, meeting fellow freethinkers as well as the driven executives who know that the business of show business is to make money.
