‘I had a huge grin on my face through most of this great book! It is so unbelievably believable. I loved the way it dipped in and out of two worlds, one foot in the humdrum of everyday life, the other knee deep in celebrity. Nearly all of us have at some time picked up a celeb magazine and wished we lived the life of the rich and famous. Great fun, I’m looking forward to the next stage of Steffi’s life’.
Jane Elliott, best-selling author of The Little Prisoner and Sadie.
'Seeing such a self-composed and attractive woman talking about her big break, I found it hard not to draw parallels with the unfolding tragedy of Britney Spears'

'I’ve never read a novel about a rising star that portrays so vividly and accurately the processes and their impact on the character’s life, their world and their relationships. The book brilliantly gets inside the mind of a young woman on her way up, battling against the odds, her loves and the prices she has to pay. I was hooked from the first page to the last and read it through almost non-stop.'
Peter James, film producer and best-selling author of Dead Simple.

But someone out there knows a secret about Steffi’s past and heartless media revelations blow apart everything she ever believed to be true about her family and about herself.
