From Publishers Weekly
Touted as a sizzling followup to the author's Palm Beach, Booth's disappointing new book is pure Hollywood hype. When bestselling novelist Julie Bennett seeks revenge for a miserable childhood, the finger points first at her gorgeous younger sister Jane, whose magnificent body brings strong men and women to their knees. One of the men she incapacitates is Julie's "toy boy," the handsome artist Billy, who leaves his mistress for her sister, then settles for a lucrative career as the art world's latest wonder. Betrayed by Billy and set up by Julie, Jane stumbles into the clutches of a porno photographer before achieving instant fame as a hot new TV star, a status her venomous sister is determined to destroy. The sole surprise is buried beneath one-dimensional characters, steamy sex and overblown, syrupy prose. 75,000 first printing; 75,000 ad/promo; first serial to Cosmopolitan; paperback rights to Ballantine; Troll Book Club selection; author tour.

From Library Journal
The revengeful act 15 year-old Julie Bennett commits against her parents lingers, festering, until a new target presents itself in the person of her younger sister, Jane. Determined to destroy the girl, Julie, now a famous novelist, feigns friendship and concern while manipulating people and circumstances to ruin Jane's rising fame as an actress and her new-found love. An unexpected twist caps a not uninteresting plot, but the interminable graphic portrayals of gay, straight, and mixed sex among the characters of Palm Springs and Hollywood add little to the appeal of the overall product. Budget limitations can undoubtedly serve to justify skipping this latest novel from British author Booth ( Palm Beach ). Judith A. Gifford, Salve Regina Coll. Lib., Newport, R.I.
