A Hollywood Affair - May 13, 2016

June by Miranda Beverly-Whittemore
Publication Date - May 31, 2016
4 stars


This luscious, fun, soap-opera of a book takes place in two different time periods during the month of June and is about a woman named June and her granddaughter.  When Cassie inherits the huge mansion Two Oaks, she has just left her boyfriend and is still grieving over her grandmother's death.  She isolates herself into the crumbling estate ignoring phone, mail and civilization until a young man knocks on her door letting her know that she is the soul inheritor of a recently deceased Hollywood star's estate.  This forces Cassie our of her isolation and into the past when a big Hollywood movie and all of its crew descended on the sleepy, small town of St. Jude, Ohio.  Big Hollywood personalities with miserable backstories, small town secrets, and illicit affairs, this book is just pure fun.  This is the second book by this author that I have really enjoyed, so I will probably just automatically read her books from now on.  I received this from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
