Claudia Miller returns to life in Fort Wayne, Indiana, though
now she has been outed as famous starlet Morgan Carter. Readers met
Morgan in TRUE CONFESSIONS OF A HOLLYWOOD STARLET as she went into
hiding in Fort Wayne after almost overdosing to death and a stint
in rehab. She was supposed to lay low, be a normal teen and not
miss any of her Narcotics Anonymous meetings. That did happen for a
while, until one of her classmates figured out who she really was
and sold her to the tabloids.

Now, Morgan is trying just to attend class and find private time
with her new boyfriend Eli. But he gets a little freaked out when a
makeout session in his car leads to paparazzi on the roof of his
vehicle. His mother, who loved Claudia, wants Morgan out of the
lives of Eli and his twin sister Emily as fast as possible. As a
therapist for drug users, she doesn't trust Morgan.

Meanwhile, Morgan's mother wants her back in LA for Thanksgiving,
scheduling Morgan for voice lessons and personal training simply
because Morgan mentioned that she may want to audition for the lead
in her high school production of Oklahoma. Her mother thinks it
will help her eventual comeback to Hollywood. She was nominated for
an Academy Award, so how hard can a high school audition be?

Things get worse when Hollywood heartthrob Harlan Darly begins
telling the press that he never got over Morgan. The reality is
that he raped Morgan when she was drunk and very young, and she has
not seen him since. She has only told a few people about what
happened and isn't sure what to do when the press asks about her
relationship with him. Her agent and new stepfather, Sam, doesn't
know and is eager to represent Harlan, so Morgan goes along --- up
to a point. When she is forced to see Harlan at an A-list party in
Hollywood, she knows she has to stand up for other women who have
gone through similar ordeals.

Morgan is funny and sincere as she sorts out who she is. While
readers may envy her Hollywood connections and designer Marc Jacobs
clothes, they will cheer her spirit as she fights to stay sober and
sane in two crazy locations.
