Wright follows Lies Jane Austen Told Me with a delightful winner that pits two friends against Hollywood’s “wretched hive of scum and villainy.” Portal Pictures’ newest assistant film editor, Sylvia Bradshaw, is under the gun working on the studio’s latest potentially Oscar-worthy movie. Her boss, Dean Thomas, is always absent even when he’s present. The night before the film’s final cuts are due, Sylvia is trying to drag a very drunken Dean back to the studio when former boss Ben Armstrong comes to the rescue. It turns out Ben’s been carrying a torch for Sylvia since forever, but his Galahad moment of helping her out eventually backfires, costing them both big time. It takes a little forgivable deus ex machina to get Sylvia and Ben to their happy ending. Thanks to dialogue that’s peppered with movie references and sweet scenes with Sylvia’s lovable grandma, contemporary romance fans will be charmed.
Narrator Justine Eyre deftly brings the listener into the world of Hollywood. This behind-the-scenes story features a young woman who is an aspiring film editor. Sylvia Bradshaw grew up under the wing of her grandmother, a renowned makeup artist who offered insights into the real Hollywood. Eyre's storytelling captures Sylvia's emotions as she negotiates the highs and lows of her career and love life. Eyre provides an audio experience that makes listeners feel like they're in L.A. right along with Sylvia. As she finds her way in a male-dominated field, Sylvia relies on the wisdom imparted by some of Audrey Hepburn's most well-known characters, such as Holly Golightly in BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S.
