Losing it all…is a new beginning
Amanda Legend grew up rich and privileged. Anything was hers for the asking, thanks to her superstar father. That is until Amanda’s honesty about bad behavior from her soon-to-be-new Step Mom, a former school chum, lands Amanda on the outs with her beloved father. No Trust fund. No rarified world. Even if Amanda never wanted the LA lifestyle, she now must survive on her own.
A come-back takes heart….
Ryan Sinclair was nearing the pinnacle of his movie career when he drove his Porsche off Malibu Canyon Road. Lucky to be alive, post rehab he’s ready to start the long climb back to the top. But to prove to Hollywood that he won’t relapse, he’s required to get a sober companion.
A job she never wanted with the man who helped destroy her life…
Amanda Legend may loathe the entertainment world, but she understands the rules. She also knows Ryan Sinclair, understands alcoholics (she grew up around a few) and now, after being banished from her posh lifestyle, needs a paycheck to get to New York. Amanda accepts the job as sober companion to Ryan Sinclair for his first film post rehab. But Amanda must learn to ignore her attraction to Ryan, because falling for a guy like him would pull her back into a world she desperately wants to escape.
Kelley’s Review
Smart, Sexy, and Ugly Beautiful…
From the very beginning of this book I kept telling myself there was no way that Amanda Legend was to fall for Ryan. He is the exact reason why she is estranged from her father and has been cut off financially. He is the reason her dream to move to NY and amazing internship is not going to happen. But when no one in Hollywood will help her, or hire her for any work and she does not have a dime to her name, it seems that Ryan might be her only hope.
I have adored this series so far. Maggie has worked in the film industry and her knowledge really shows in her plot development. I love how broken Ryan and Amanda are and how they find a common ground to build a sold friendship on. I also am enchanted by the nasty villain in this story Kiley Kepner. She is a piece of work that you will love to hate. Wow! Purely vindictive and self-centered. She also amazes me at how much she does what she wants to do with no fear of any consequences. I kept turning the pages to see when she was finally going to get what was coming to her.
This story is filled with sexual chemistry and tension between Ryan and Amanda. She becomes his light as he is dealing with his demons. She tells him how it is and how it should be and does not care if he wants to hear it or not. That is what keeps him grounded and he finds that he likes seeing this side of her. She has shown him her true colors and is not the Amanda Legend that backs down from a fight that she has always seemed to be.
The Glamour Series will take you on a joy ride behind the scenes in Hollywood that you will never forget. I have certainly enjoyed the ride so far and am looking forward to the next book in this series.
Each title in the Glamour series may be read as a standalone.

A promise to keep….
Honoring her mother’s last wish, Lane Channing vows to follow her dreams. She takes the ‘big risk’ and leaves her small Kansas town behind and heads to LA, the city of dreams. She’s got a stellar job lined up, an old jeep, and 20 bucks to last her to her first paycheck. Her hopes shatter when she arrives to find her job’s been given to someone else. Now she’s broke and will soon be living on the streets if she doesn’t do something fast. Welcome to cutthroat – Lane is most certainly not in Kansas anymore.
On the cusp of success…
Dillon MacAvoy has one goal–to become a star–whatever it takes. Even if it means honing his bad-boy can’t-be-tamed-and-forever-single image. Besides the image isn’t far from the truth. Dillon cares only about his younger brother and his career. He’s on the brink of superstardom if he can just decide on the next right script. But for that, he needs a script reader he can trust.
In a strange twist of fate…
Lane Channing is Dillon’s last chance. If Lane lasts the summer without becoming MacAvoy’s latest conquest, she’s guaranteed a job in entertainment. No problem, as long as she can ignore the heat that pulses through her every time Dillon is in the room. After all, love and commitment with a sweet, hometown girl would only ruin the Dillon MacAvoy brand.
