Corrie Browne is an ordinary girl with extraordinary ambitions. Determined to find the father she has never known, her search takes her from the quiet Suffolk village where she lives, to a new life in London, a fast pace television career - and to three people who come to dominate her life. Luke, charismatic, blond and charming, is the only one to make Corrie feel welcome at TW TV and the only one to recognize her talent. Cristoff, an internationally famous film director, is the man who teaches her everything he knows about sex and passion. And Annelise is her boss and friend - a woman about whom Corrie knows a secret that must never be revealed. Three colleagues - all of whom are to play an important role in Corrie's search for love and success. One of whom intends Corrie's ultimate destruction.
Why Read - I have read previous works of Susan Lewis and enjoyed them and picked this one up in a charity shop recently and wanted to read it.
That was a weeks worth of reading I will never get back, complete waste of time and effort. I did not give up on this book as I was hoping it might get better but it never really did. Probably the worst one of Lewis's books I have ever read. I don't think the story was well written, and in parts it was awful and cringworthy. I kept trying to get into this book and every time i did so one of the characters would do or say something that would completely put me off them.
The characters in this story were completely unlikeable and hard to relate to and the story its self was just odd. It was very much written from the point of view of someone who had no knowledge in the subject she was writing about and it just made the overall story unlikable. And the ending was truly awful and creepy to the point I mostly skimmed the last few chapters. The whole plot was also predictable and I was willing her to supprise me or to improve but it never did. Very disappointed in the book.
