Synopsis
- British rights for Adored were acquired for a hefty advance in a three-day, six-publisher auction, followed by major sales throughout the world. - Adored will appeal to the same audience that made bestsellers of Plum Sykes's Bergdorf Blondes (Miramax, 4/04), Jackie Collins's Hollywood Divorces (Simon & Schuster, 2003), and Sidney Sheldon's Are You Afraid of the Dark? (William Morrow, 2004). - The fact that a beautiful, accomplished 31-year-old Cambridge University graduate has taken it upon herself to reinvent and revel in such big-canvas story-telling is sure to attract considerable media attention. - Tilly Bagshawe is a freelance journalist and regular contributor to The Sunday Times, Daily Mail, and other major British publications. She lives in Los Angeles and London with her husband and daughter.

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
