She becomes close friends with Mac Randall, her new co-star, while she helps him prepare for his first on-screen role. Friendship blossoms into love during their shoot and despite several mishaps on the set, she knows not only has she done the best work in her career on this film, but she believes Mac will become an instant star.

Hollywood Double is the fourth book in the Hollywood Name Game series. Each book in the series is a standalone story that can be enjoyed out of order.
My Review:
This book is difficult to review not because there wasn’t a good plot but because of its execution. The story jumped from scene to scene with little natural flow. It made for disjointed reading. I found it difficult to follow the story as information was just thrown at the reader and it skipped over chunks of time with little regard to story development.
This was a miss for me and one I wouldn’t recommend.
I received an arc of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
