Each character brings their unique struggles and quirks to the table, creating a rollercoaster of emotions that will keep you glued to your seat until the very last page.

Meet the Characters

Rachel Burt, our starry-eyed protagonist, has left behind her small-town roots and her coveted Starbucks employee of the month title to pursue her dreams of becoming a screenwriter. She's eager, clueless, and ready to take on Hollywood.

Michaela Marsh, a never-say-die plastic-surgery perfect "midget Tai-Bo Barbie," has spent years trying to break into Hollywood. She's got the talent, but ageism and Hollywood's fickle nature have kept her from her big break.

Jebediah Stone, fueled by pure rage, has been fired from more assistant jobs than he cares to count. He works for Randall Blume, one of the sleaziest agents in Hollywood, and is teetering on the edge of insanity.

Kecia Christy, a no-nonsense Pisces addicted to Krispy Kremes, works for Travis Trask, the hottest teen heartthrob since Leo DiCaprio. She's more interested in smoking prizewinning pot with her friends than her next movie.

Griffin Newman, intelligent and ambitious, seems to have it all. But working under Johnny Treadway, a crass A-list manager with pec and cheek implants, has left Griffin questioning if selling his soul is worth that elusive promotion.
