The Second Assistant is truly a tale from the bottom of the Hollywood ladder. Elizabeth Miller decided to give up her comfortable job as a Washington senator’s aide to get her shot in the glamorous Hollywood elite. She joins on to The Agency, a powerful representation company, but quickly finds herself the odd one out. Her hair is not highlighted, her clothes are not designer, her car is a clunker, and readers seriously doubt that Lizzie can pull it off in LA. Her naïve sense gets her in to trouble on more than one occasion- falling for the wrong guys, getting roofied at dinner, thinking someone is a friend when they are really out to sabotage her every move- but readers will cheer for Lizzie as we watch her grow up in between the pages. Lizzie slowly gains friends and a sense of desire- she wants to produce and has an excellent opportunity land on her lap. But can she pull it off when she once again is hung out to dry by a ‘friend’ when a better opportunity comes along?
Clare Naylor & Mimi Hare give readers a tantalizing peek behind the scenes of the Hollywood lifestyle and the major players (think Cameron, George and Leo) and the entertaining and outrageous scenarios that the heroine finds herself caught up in keeps the book on pace. The Second Assistant offers a fun, fast, a laugh out loud chick lit novel.
