Blurb: Becky Brandon (nee Bloomwood) is in Hollywood! It's as if all her life has been leading to this moment. She's hanging out with the stars. Or at least she will be, when she finally gets to meet movie superstar Sage Seymour, whom husband Luke is now managing.

There's so much to see and do! And getting Minnie through the hurdles for her A-list Hollywood pre-school will require some.er.help.

Becky sets her heart on a new career - she's going to be a celebrity stylist. Red carpet, here she comes! But Becky soon finds it's tough in Tinseltown. Luckily her best friend Suze comes over to keep her company, and together they embark on the Hollywood insider trail. But somehow...things aren't quite working out as they'd hoped.

Then Becky's big chance comes, and it's an opportunity that money can't buy. But will it cost her too much?

Review: She is back! Becky is back! I actually hadn't realised how much I had missed her until I started reading about her again and I felt like being home. I love Becky and all her big plans that usually don't work out as she had planned. In this case, she finds herself in Hollywood and far from being intimidated by big stars, wheatgrass juices, premieres, meditation centres... she is convinced that she is going to be the next style guru in town. This creates a series of hilarious situations that made me laugh out loud like I hadn't for a while with a book. 

Plus, in the book we get to enjoy our favourite characters again, like lovely Suze and her eccentric husband Tarquin (I've always had a soft spot for him and I loved that he has quite a big role in this book), but also our most hated characters too: Alicia is back! She seems to have changed for good but she isn't fooling us. By us I mean Becky and myself because we are like besties already.

Basically I loved having Becky and Luke back. They have such a great relationship (well, except when Becky tries to hide stuff from him). He gets her in every level. Oh and Mini! She is such a little diva. I could totally picture her shouting pleeeeeease for everything she wanted! And I cannot wait for their new adventure because after the ending of this book (yes, huge cliff hanger alert!) there is no way our queen of chick lit is going to leave us like this. In the meanwhile though, I am sure I am going to reread it (quite) soon.
