'Great fun - Loretta is glorious!' Lucy Diamond
'Sparkles with fun and wit' Libby Page
'A fun, gossipy glimpse into Golden Era Hollywood' Julie Cohen

-----

You’re Loretta Darling now, welcome to your brand-new flipping life.


Dreams don’t come true for girls like Loretta but she won’t let that stop her. With her sights set on becoming a make-up artist to the stars, Loretta wangles her way from Lancashire to the bright lights of Golden Age Hollywood.

Only it turns out that Sunset Boulevard is less about dashing fellas and chilled martinis – more sticky floors and misbehaving men. The gift of the gab can only get her so far but she refuses to go quietly.

Hollywood has its secrets … and so does Loretta.

For a start, that’s not her real name, and much more than lipstick lurks inside her beauty case.

After all, revenge is a dish best served with a perfectly painted smile.
