    • Rose Fiorello has nothing - except a mane of blue-black hair, she-wolf eyes and a blistering hatred of Rothstein Realty, the ruthless property developer that crushed her father's business. And then she meets Jake, the sexy, arrogant heir to the Rothstein fortune... Poppy Allen has the perfect LA princess lifestyle: wealthy parents, a lovely home and looks that stop traffic. But Poppy craves the excitement of rock 'n' roll... For Daisy Markham, life at her English boarding school is unbearable. Overweight and underachieving, she escapes by devouring glitzy novels. And she's starting to think she'd be better off writing them rather than reading them... Three women determined to get exactly what they want. But they share a secret that's going to unite them in a way they could never have imagined...
