10 Simple Rules of Hollywood

• Never take any call you can return.
• Never expect stars to be your friends.
• When in doubt, stay in the closet.
• Lie about your prescription drug intake. Everyone does.
• Never eat if you can avoid it.
• Hollywood is all about numbers, no matter what you've heard.
• Hollywood is all about rumors, just like you've heard.
• Boys rule.
• Girls never rule.
• And they hardly ever win.

For Alex Davidson, being a celebrity publicist at a Los Angeles PR firm isn't the glamour job she thought it would be. Her lovelife is zilch, her newest client is an actor fresh out of rehab and her firm has just been bought out by a rival agency. Suddenly, Alex finds her once-secure job at stake. Set in the sun-drenched L.A. of celebrity magazine photo shoots, velvet-roped VIP parties, and red carpet events, this is a laugh-out-loud novel of one young woman's attempt to make it in the male-dominated, shark-infested waters of Hollywood. It will satisfy even the most insatiable celebraholic.
