Louisa’s grown children arrive stunned and ready to fight.

The bigger shock-she left all her money to Ashley. The aspiring actress never gets to thank her, though, because the day after the audition, Louisa is dead. When fate leads her to the doorstep of legendary casting director Louisa Lake George, Ashley thinks her luck is about to change: the prickly old pro knows about a role she’s perfect for. After years of struggling to make it in Hollywood, she’s still waiting for her big break. I also enjoyed the author’s first book-“Good as Dead” and look forward to her next release, scheduled for publication in 2023.Ībout the book: “An inheritance that comes with a warning.Īshley Brooks’s life isn’t working out as planned. This was a FIRST READ selection through Amazon Prime, and it’s AVAILABLE NOW! I think the final twist seemed out of character-but all in all-a solid, entertaining read! If the repetition of hearing how several characters view the same event in completely unique ways, bothers you-this one may not work for you-but I enjoy that! Told from the alternating POV’s of Ashley and Louisa, Ashley’s roommate Jordan, and the heir apparents-Nathan, Winnie, Charlie, and Marcela, the chapters are short and the pace is fast.

JUST HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO GET WHAT YOU WANT?! Unfortunately-Louisa is dead before that can happen.īut, fortunately-she changed her “Will” the day prior-leaving her house and all of her money to the wannabe actress, instead of to her ungrateful heirs. She is offered a chance to “audition” for a part that Louisa thinks she will be perfect for and promised an introduction to the Hollywood Players that can make a career.

When fate (or actually her dog, Brando 🐕) leads struggling actress Ashley Brooks to the doorstep of legendary casting director, Louisa Lake George, she has no idea that her life is about to change dramatically! Screenwriter Susan Walter’s second novel is JUST AS MUCH FUN as a Hollywood movie!
