Synopsis:
Sixteen-year-old Annabelle Jacobs never asked to be famous, but as the daughter of Janie Jacobs, one of the biggest TV stars in the world, she is. Growing up is hard enough. Having to do it in public because your mother is a famous actress? Even harder. When your mom crashes and burns after her DUI mug shot is splashed across the internet? Definitely not fun. Then your mom falls for a guy so much younger than she that it would be more appropriate for you to be dating him? That’s just a train wreck waiting to happen.My Thoughts: I really like the sound of this book a relationship between a teenager and her mom is hard enough without your mother being famous. I am excited to see how this story resolves itself and what will happen to Annabelle along the way.
From Robin Palmer, author of Geek Charming and Wicked Jealous, this is a novel about the most complicated relationship a girl ever has: that with her mother.
Being the child of a celebrity would be difficult. Puts you in the spotlight whether or not you want it.
