In Hollywood, every pavement star tells a story. Not all of them shine.????Wannabe actor Kyle Macdonald is down on his luck. Working as a supply teacher in an inner-city Birmingham school, he's single again at 28, and sleeping in his childhood bedroom beneath a 'Hard Candy' Madonna poster. He gets a call claiming he drunkenly married top Hollywood director Aaron Biedermeier in Vegas six years ago.
Rather than panic, he sees a golden ticket to fame and the life he's always fantasised about. But the glamourous veneer of Los Angeles - non-stop sunshine, celebrity actors and exclusive hotel suites - starts to crack, revealing a darker, corrupt underbelly to La-La Land. Kyle digs deeper into his so-called husband's past, unearthing disturbing allegations of abuse and underage sex parties. With the help of Biedermeier's fiancé, actor Noah Winters, he embarks on a cross-country race to unravel the mystery and expose the truth - finding love along the way."Fanning (author of Ghosted) narrates Kyle's naïve pursuit of fame and fortune with brisk prose, sharp dialogue, and a strong sense of dark ironies."PUBLISHERS WEEKLY"Punchy writing and appealing characters."KIRKUS REVIEWS"Heart-mangling with LOL moments.
