A girl who has always been alone makes a shiny new life in L.A.-until it falls apart. Can she learn that good things do last?
For Greta Donovan, happiness has always been out of reach. Awkward and intelligent, she struggles to relate to people, especially her father, whose cruel words haunted her childhood. Only her mother accepted her, but now her mother is dying, and her father's mistress is sleeping in the guest room.
Desperate to escape, twenty-one-year-old Greta flees to Los Angeles and moves in with Daphne, the only person she ever counted on. An ambitious Hollywood up-and-comer, Daphne teaches Greta how to wear stilettos and apply lip gloss. Within weeks, Greta befriends an aging movie star who becomes the father she never had, and she falls in love for the first time-with her new boss. Greta has it all: a blossoming career, friends she can trust, and a man who would give her everything.
But then, in a single night, jealousies tear her world apart. Greta winds up more alone than ever, her father's prophecies fulfilled-she's not worthy of love, and never will be. But the trouble is only starting. Daphne makes an outrageous decision that puts Greta in the path of a dangerous man bent on revenge. This time, more than Greta's spirit gets hurt. As her friends put aside their differences to protect her, will Greta learn how to let herself be loved?
Author's note: The main character of Entanglement is autistic, and I'm a bipolar-autistic author. Like all of the books in the Hollywood Lights series, Entanglement centers neurodiversity-it also features a hottie production tech, a movie star with a heart of gold, and a fish-out-of-water love story with a happily ever after.
Content note: Entanglement features strong romantic elements with some steamy and fade-to-black scenes. There is one flashback of sexual violence against a teenaged girl; one physical assault against an adult woman; and flashbacks to verbal abuse of children by their parents.
The IPPY-Gold-winning Hollywood Lights series is full of angst, romance, family drama, deep friendship ties, and happily ever afters. The series is now complete. Perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover.
