A wunderkind young set designer, Emi has already started to find her way in the competitive Hollywood film world.
Emi is a film buff and a true romantic, but her real-life relationships are a mess. She has desperately gone back to the same girl too many times to mention. But then a mysterious letter from a silver screen legend leads Emi to Ava. Ava is unlike anyone Emi has ever met. She has a tumultuous, not-so-glamorous past, and lives an unconventional life. She's enigmatic. She's beautiful. And she is about to expand Emi's understanding of family, acceptance, and true romance.
"Starred Review. [U]nderneath the privilege surges real pain, longing, and feeling in a way that makes it easy to imagine this novel as a film. Ages 14 & up." - Publishers Weekly
"Though the mystery may feel obvious, the sensitive, multifaceted novel creates an authentic portrayal of the ups and downs of life in the movie-production world - and of the coming-of-age of Emi as a talented artist whose skills and confidence in her own ability and instincts grow through the story. An absorbing Hollywood read." - Kirkus
