To the outside world, Siena McMahon has a fairytale life. Born into a great Hollywood dynasty - granddaughter of forties movie legend Duke McMahon, daughter of billionaire producer Pete McMahon - she is blessed with beauty, brains and wealth, a proverbial princess. But behind the wrought iron gates of the McMahon's sprawling Hollywood mansion, life is far from happy. The McMahons are bound together not by love, but by ambition, greed and intrigue. When a gold-digging English aristocrat worms her way into their lives and their home, the fault lines in the feuding family are blown right open. In an effort to protect Siena from the fall-out, her parents pack her off to an English boarding school. But Siena has a burning ambition - she is determined to become a Hollywood star, just as her grandfather said she would be. One way or another, Siena McMahon is going to return to LA and take the City of Dreams by storm. And woe betide anyone who gets in her way...

About the Author:
Tilly Bagshawe upset the nuns at her Catholic boarding school by getting pregnant at seventeen. Expelled but undaunted, she gave birth to a beautiful daughter alone and went on to Cambridge University before fulfilling her dream of becoming a writer. Now a happy (but tired!) mother of three, she has contributed to many newspapers and magazines including GLAMOUR, COSMOPOLITAN, THE SUNDAY TIMES and THE DAILY MAIL.
From AudioFile:
This saga of a dysfunctional Hollywood dynasty includes Duke, the superstar patriarch; his long-suffering wife; his greedy mistress; and his beautiful granddaughter, Siena, who seems to have all the cards stacked against her as she tries to gain the adoration that goes with becoming her grandfather's true heir. Sonya Walger's transitions between episodes could be smoother, but her on-the-mark portrayals of each member of the large cast are distinctly colorful, varied, and convincing in gender, age, and personality. Of special note are her characterizations of the dynamic and selfishly powerful Duke and the ever-changing Siena. A predictable Hollywood fairy tale is made into compelling entertainment by Walger's firm grasp of character. M.T.B. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
