The Dream: rich and famous screenwriter of hilarious sapphic rom coms. The Reality: pushing out trashy celebrity gossip for cash. The Grand Plan: advance career by engineering a celebrity takedown. Fran Underhill’s adoration for the entertainment industry is in flames, transformed into a loathing of celebrity culture and all those who benefit from it. When a personal assistant gig for one of Hollywood’s most popular actresses falls into her lap, Fran is determined to use the experience to her advantage with a series of tell-all articles. Just enough clickbait to get her next screenplay sold. Now if only she can ignore that ferocious and inconvenient attraction to her new employer. Chelsea Cartwright—actress, mother, and ex-wife to Hollywood royalty—is struggling. A competent new assistant will do much to ease her burdens, but who could predict the intense and long-buried feelings Fran would awaken. And what will the fallout be when she finds out Fran is a member of the gossip media—with Chelsea’s public destruction in her sights.

Sapphic movies aren’t as easy to sell as the “classic” romcom, even if they aren’t nearly as overdone. When LA doesn’t seem to care though, and Fran’s spent the last 8 years trying, it’s time to try to dig up some celebrity dirt by becoming their personal assistant. Not for no reason. She has to pay the bills somehow, and celebrity gossip can raise a lot more interest if there’s drama, and Chelsea is that lucky celebrity.
This is a witty sapphic rom com style romance, with wonderful character development and plot pacing. I would absolutely read it again and recommend it!
