"Tired of gathering banal quotes from the B-list on the sidelines of the red carpet. Emma Swanson publicly yearns for a more substantial career but privately dreams of a hot shot boyfriend to transport her into the beating heart of the Hollywood scene. Instead she meets Jessica - beautiful, cavalier, manipulative - who shamelessly trades sex for the gifts it can bring. Convinced that writing a story about Jessica and her ilk would seriously boost her journalistic cred, Emma soon finds herself sucked into a world where the luxuries of prettied-up prostitution may cost more than she ever expected."--Cover p.
