## Excerpt

Chapter 1

Alex Morgan was shopping for a dress at Lulu's, a famous boutique in North Hollywood, for a red-carpet premiere of the hit reality show Living in the Fast Lane on E! The series featured three Lane sisters, Cassidy, Camille, and Caylie. Cassidy was the sensible sister and a Hollywood fashion stylist to the stars. She had redone Leslie Thompson's closet and picked an outfit for her red carpet event. Leslie Thompson, was a reality star from the series The True Housewives of Los Angeles. Camille, the middle sister, was an aspiring actress, who had landed on covers of every magazine since Living in the Fast Lane premiered. She had been attending Stella Adler Studio of Acting during the show's first season. Camille was goregous with her long brown ombre hair, pouty lips, and size-D boobs. She was only in her mid-twenties. Alex saw her as just a child, who was in way over her head. Caylie, the youngest sister of the trio, was way feistier than her older sisters. She was currently a junior at California University at Los Angeles, CULA to most people. She had on a white tank top, jeans, and leopard-print heels. She had a black handbag from D-Twice.
Even though, she detested reality shows and its stars, Alex was just attending the premiere, just out of courteously. She knew the Lane sisters had no talent to be on TV. It pissed her off that reality shows starlets have become ten times more famous than she was. They land on several covers of magazines and the only magazine Alex only graced the cover of was Teen Beat, thanks to her role as Meadow McAllister on the popular teen drama, Summer Cove.
Since the end of Summer Cove, Alex tried to land in roles distant from the series, but the only shows that were popular were reality shows. It was like Hollywood only paid attention to reality show starlets, which Alex was not. All reality shows do was follow the cast around with cameras, recording their crazy lives while they dished about anything.
Alex remained famous by doing what she does best, being a Hollywood actress.
As she searched for her red carpet dress, the Lane sisters dropped by Lulu's for new outfits. Seeing the sisters called Alex to roll her eyes. She saw them as cheap floozies who used their good looks to get on TV.
"Hello, Alex," Camille Lane greeted her.
"Hey, there, ladies. What brings you here to Lulu's?" she asked.
"You know, I've always loved you in Summer Cove," Caylie gushed.
"Thanks."
“We’re here to pick up our dresses for the premiere,” Camille explained.
“Are you going to be at the premiere, Alex?” Cassidy asked.
“Of course. I wouldn’t miss it for the world!”
Alex wished she would miss it. She wondered what anyone ever saw in the Lane sisters. The thought of attending the premiere still makes her want to puke her guts out. Alex is still maintaining her civilized manor towards the sisters, but underneath, she still couldn’t stand them. Their TV series Living in the Fast Lane featured the sisters and their lives as famous reality show starlets. The Lane family owned a lavish restaurant Cafe Lane. Alex's parents, Freddie, a Soap Opera legend and Ben, a famed actor, producer, and director have attended the grand opening of the cafe. Alex was filming Summer Cove at the time of Cafe Lane's grand opening. Catherine Sorenson, the sisters' mother and matriarch of the family, owned the restaurant and was excited when Freddie Morgan visited the place on opening night. Kat was a huge fan of Freddie and had watched Our Secret Lives religously. It was a daytime soap opera Freddie starred in as Esther Diamond, the matriarch of the troubled but wealthy Diamond family.
Other than being a popular soap opera star, Freddie had a successful line of hair care, skin care, and fragrances that were sold on the shopping channel KVC and she was voted number 15 of Hollywood Royality magazine's most beautiful stars.
Now, Freddie's eldest daughter having an awkward chat with Catherine's three beautiful daughters at a clothing boutique in West Hollywood.
"Looks like we'll see you at the permiere, Alex," said Camille.
"I'll be there!" Alex smiled.
The Lane sisters had picked up their red carpet dresses for the premiere of their series, and left the boutique. Alex was relieved that the sisters have left. The girls had become successful TV stars and were invited to several red carpet events, while Alex, still a sucessful Hollywood actress found herself cast in TV shows that were either cancelled after the first season or not picked up by any local TV networks. Even though she was still acting on TV, movies, and theatre, the success she went through on Summer Cove, were now a thing of the past.

Chapter 2

"ACTION!" the director called out. Jo Morgan was shooting a scene of her hit TV show L.A. Beat with her co-star John Harrison.
"Get this. Todd Martin had a record for kidnapping and attempted rape. Sound like this father of the year is pretty busy commiting crimes behind his family's backs."
Jo was playing Detective Hannah Montgomery. She was TV's soft-hearted, but tough police officer, who was voted TV Guide's Female Cops on TV.
"Plus, I had a interview with Todd's ex-wife number two, he and his daughter, Scarlett had a falling out six months ago. She completely cut ties with him," said John, who was portraying Hannah's partner, Detective Caleb Hooks.
"There must be bad blood going on in this family. Bad enough that father and daughter would stop talking to one another. Let's pay his first ex-wife a little visit."
"CUT!" the director called out.
"That was tough," said John.
"Couldn't agree with you more," Jo smiled.
Jo's gig as TV's police detective was much different from her previous TV role on a family sitcom she did at sixteen. When her sister, Alex became a teen idol, thanks to her role on the teen drama, Summer Cove, Jo wanted a piece of the action. Defying her father's wishes to not pursue a entertainment career in Hollywood, Jo sent headshots of herself to acting agencies whenever she could. But an modeling agency received her headshot and signed her. Jo ended up modeling for Sketchers shoes, Lola's, a clothing retail business, and she ended up in TV commericals. She did Sketchers commericals and a memorable Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal commerical where it took place at a high school.
Her parents found out about her acting activity after seeing their daughter in a Sketchers commerical. Ben was furious that his daughter had defied him. Acting was one career goal he didn't want any of his daughters to pursue, yet Alex didn't listen and neither did Jo. Freddie, on the other hand, was proud of her daughter. Although she wasn't thrilled of Jo pursing a acting career behind her back, she supported Jo's choice to pursue her new passion. After a year of TV commericals and modeling gigs, Jo auditioned for a role on a WTV teen drama, Gross Pointe, playing a new love interest for the show's hearttrob, Brad Johnson, played by Johnny Bishop. Jo's recurring role as the spoiled Ashley Miller lasted five episodes and her performance caught the attention of producers who were looking for the right teenage actress to play Heather Martin in their upcoming new family sitcom, The Reluctant Stepmother.
Jo landed the role and after the show's premiere, she had become another Teen Sweetheart.
Viewers tuned in to see her character, Heather Martin bond with her latina stepmother, who married Heather's father to avoid being deported when her Visa expired.
For six seasons, The Reluctant Stepmother was a ratings darling and fans of the show had posters of Jo on their walls. Whenever the show went on hiatus, Jo was booked to do numerous TV movies from Sweet 16 to to Star-Crossed Lovers, and and even the comedy, Sudden Stepsisters about a straight-A student and a snobby cheerleader who become stepsisters.
When Jo learn that The Reluctant Stepmother was being canceled, she was on location doing a TV movie with her sister, Alex. She learned of the show's cancellation from a phone call from her co-star Melina Diaz, who played her stepmother.
After the movie wrapped, Jo returned to The Reluctant Stepmother to shoot its final season. Viewers saw Heather Martin reunite with her boyfriend, graduated from high school, and receive acceptance to fashion college. Shooting the series finale was a sad moment for Jo. She loved her co-stars and working on the show. Following the end of The Reluctant Stepmother, Jo went to performing arts college and did more TV movies. Following graduation, she did an indie movie, and a guest-appearance on Laugh Track until she landed a role on a the cop drama, L.A. Beat.
Now, Jo had gone from Teen Sweetheart to TV's memorable female cop. Solving crimes on camera was much different from her playing a hyperactive teenager with a latina stepmother.
Her days on The Reluctant Stepmother were more than just a mere memory, it had made her famous. Now, as Hollywood had become more obessed with reality shows and their stars, famous actresses like Jo had to fight like hell to maintain on Hollywood's radar to keep their careers going. Jo's cop series, L.A. Beat was filmed at Sunset Grove Studios in Hollywood, the same studios that filmed her past show The Reluctant Stepmother. She was back in the same studios, but things were different. Filming of L.A. Beat took place on Stage 4, where it had eight dressing rooms, one make-up room, and one wardrobe room.

Chapter 3

"Look at all of these beautiful gowns mom wore!" Lizzie Morgan gushed. She and her younger sister, Christy were in their mother's big walk-in closet and were checking out every gown or little dress she wore in award ceremonies and premiere events throughout her career as a stage and screen actress.
Fredrica Morgan, Mom to her daughters and Freddie to most of her friends, was a veteran actress on the stage in New York City and the screen in Hollywood. She had been married to another actor Benjamin Morgan since the seventies. Although, Ben, who Freddie would call him, have gotten his start in theatre on the Broadway stage, his performance caught the attention of a talent agent and over the years on television, Ben had become a famous Hollywood actor. Ben and Freddie settled down to married life in Los Feliz, a upscale neighborhood in North Hollywood, where they had their first daughter, Alex; then Jo three years later. Lizzie didn't arrive until four later, Christy, the last daughter joined Lizzie three years later. While Alex and Jo were three years apart from one another, so were Lizzie and Christy. Ben and Freddie did their best to keep their daughters away from Hollywood as they grew up a normal life. But when the Morgan girls are the offspiring of two famous performers, there was no such thing as normal. After Freddie had Christy, she was offered a role as matriarch Esther Diamond in the soap opera Our Secret Lives. Freddie juggled being a soap star and mother to her four daughters.
Now, Freddie was a widowed soap legend and her four girls were all grown up, with Alex and Jo still acting in the business and Lizzie and Christy were beginning to spread their entertainment wings. Lizzie had been a dancer since childhood and Christy was a singer and wanted to be a pop star like the Slumber Party Girls.
Throughout high school, Lizzie was in numerous plays and musicals were she sang and dance. After graduation, she was accepted to the Los Angeles Academy of Dramatic Arts where she majored in musical theatre. It was same performing arts college where her sister, Jo attended after the cancellation of her hit series, The Reluctant Stepmother, and graduated with a certificate in Acting. Lizzie remembered the day when Alex, Jo, and Christy had to help her move into her new apartment near campus before the first semester started.
Their mother, Freddie was unavailable to help her youngest daughter get settled into college life, because she was shooting scenes from Our Secret Lives where her long-running character Esther Diamond learned that her daughter, Mabel had a drug addiction. Freddie couldn't take time off of a long-running soap opera to help her youngest daughter with college. She would later apologize to Christy for not being there when she is starting college by giving her a housewarming gift, a picture of the entire Morgan family in front of their Los Feliz home. It was the picture Christy kept at her nightstand throughout college.
Christy was home for Spring Break and Lizzie was bored, so she was hanging out with her kid sister. She planned to take photos of herself in all of her mother's gowns and dresses that were made from numerous fashion designers.
"Is that mom's Golden Globe dress from, like 1993?" Christy asked. The two were staring Freddie's long-sleeved gold sequin gown which was created Dorian Clark, designer to the stars. At the time, Dorian was the go-to designer for awards and event ceremonies and a major addict. When celebrities and socialites attended Clark's funeral after his death from an overdose, they wore every one of his creations instead of black.
"This was the original Dorian Clark. He created this gown especially for mom!" Lizzie exclaimed. Freddie's closet was more than just a closet, it was a wardrobe of designer gowns
