Acerca de esta escucha
Four beautiful women seek fame and fortune in Hollywood, the City of Toys, where actresses are like dolls, playing pretend on the big screen.
Marlo: a former child actress from New York City.
Rhonda: a small-town beauty queen.
Kim: a “nice Jewish girl” with a painful childhood.
Guyla: a “serious actress” with a debilitating, stress-induced illness.
Marlo, Rhonda, Kim, and Guyla, become friends living in the same apartment complex, in the city where dreams and disasters go hand in hand. They come to rely on each other as they deal with sexual come-ons, crazed stalkers, jealous starlets, and the constant pressure of trying to make it in showbiz. But when the pressure gets too much, will their friendship save them or will the City of Toys break them?
A modern take on Valley of the Dolls in the MeToo era.

Chanel Martinez, a five-foot-nine bombshell with a devastating secret, will trick the average player on the spot. Between credit-card scams, wild nights on the town, and her over-the-top lifestyle, no ordinary man can handle a real relationship with her. In comes Samuel, a Jamaican baller destined to sweep Chanel off her feet. Their short-term romance turns into a love affair that Chanel all of a sudden cannot resist. Unfortunately for her, Samuel has something to hide of his own. Imagine - two lovers, two mysterious secrets, and the law...all wrapped up into one novel.

I got her fired. Okay, so I’d had a bad day and took it out on a bystander in a pizza shop. But there’s nothing innocent about Ally Morales. She proves that her first day of her new job in my office, after being hired by my mother. So, maybe, her colorful, annoying, inexplicably alluring personality brightens up the magazine’s offices that have felt like a prison for the past year. Maybe, I like that she argues with me in front of the editorial staff. And maybe, my after-hours fantasies are haunted by those brown eyes and that sharp tongue.

Beth Montgomery seems to have the perfect life: a beautiful house in the hills above Los Angeles, a handsome, ambitious husband, and plans of starting a family. So it doesn't occur to her to worry when the news breaks of a quadruple homicide across town, a botched drug deal that leaves an undercover officer among the dead. Beth certainly would never think to tie the murders to the sudden reappearance in her life of wild, sexy Cassie Ogilvy, the estranged best friend she hasn't seen since they were college roommates.

Outed and dumped on national television by his rising star boyfriend, Joey Nichols must face the bigotry of the locals in his small Southern town alone. His dreams of a happy-ever-after lie crushed at his feet. Novelist Troy Steele has an axe to grind against Hollywood heartbreaker types. Transforming Joey into a gorgeous, unobtainable hunk would be payback worthy of Troy’s poison pen. It's a brilliant way to get back at Joey’s image-obsessed ex-boyfriend and the movie producer who’s mutilating Troy’s novels.

To the Green-Eyed Lovebird: We met 15 years ago, almost to the day, when I moved my stuff into the NYU dorm room next to yours at Senior House. You called us fast friends. I like to think it was more. We lived on nothing but the excitement of finding ourselves through music (you were obsessed with Jeff Buckley), photography (I couldn’t stop taking pictures of you), hanging out in Washington Square Park, and all the weird things we did to make money. I learned more about myself that year than any other. Yet, somehow, it all fell apart.

Will the challenges beat them?
Good Narration with lots of Characters. I especially liked the New York accent
We've all heard how hard it is to make it in Hollywood. The author gives a nitty gritty real experience look of four young women determined to make their dream come true. They come to the city about the same time from different backgrounds and become friends helping each other, suffering the high price they will pay with each other.
To begin the apartment building has its own set of problems and people including an off-balanced pervert. Great way to start their new life. Headshots, resumes, jobs, men, are only some of the problems they experience. The question persists will they be stronger than the challenges. Or will the challenges beat them?
If you enjoy fiction showing real life this one is for you. Each character has a distinct personality and background affecting the way they handle the life. You answer the question, is the effort worth the prize at any cost?
