What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
When Kansas sweetheart Maggie Lathrop is crowned the winner of America’s most popular dating show, her life is transformed overnight.
Suddenly, Maggie has it all: a gorgeous husband, an immaculate Los Angeles mansion, and an entourage of glamorous friends.
Despite picture-perfect appearances, the world Maggie has created is shattered after she’s found murdered in a desolate warehouse.
As her sister, Emma, attempts to uncover the truth about Maggie’s life, a deadlier side to Hollywood is revealed.
Because being beautiful can have the ugliest consequences. . .
