Lucky Stars

All she wanted was for her mother to get a life. Preferably, her own.

Aspiring actress Stacey Reiser went to Hollywood for two reasons: the Big Break, and the even Bigger Break from her meddlesome, widowed mother, Helen. Who would've guessed that all five-foot-two inches of pure aggravation would follow her there - and get a nicer apartment and a rich boyfriend named Victor to boot?

Now, as a result of a complaint letter, Helen ascends from a cranky consumer advocate to the darling of the talk show circuit. With her career in high gear, it's Stacey's that sinks into oblivion after a bad review from insufferable film critic Jack Rawlins (who has the gall to be as handsome as he is arrogant!).

Then Stacey discovers Victor's shady past. Now, between getting her life back on track, thanks to a red-hot romance with Jack Rawlins himself, and convincing her mother that Victor is bad - possibly dangerous - news, Stacey discovers that fame and fortune are elusive at best, but at least love could still be in the stars.
