“Amanda Gallo is my kind of girl: funny, self-aware, and unable to resist a makeover. . . . I loved this novel.” —Lauren Weisberger, author of The Devil Wears Prada and When Life Gives You Lululemons

“Entertaining.” —People

When Amanda Gallo, fresh from the backwater of local TV, lands the anchor job of her dreams at FAIR News, she thinks she’s finally made it: a six-figure salary, wardrobe allowance, plenty of on-air face time, and a chance to realize her dreams, not to mention buy herself lunch. Instead, she finds her journalistic ideals shredded as she struggles to keep up with the issues in a ratings-crazed madhouse: battling for hair and makeup time; coping with her sexist (but scathingly handsome) coanchor, Rob; and showing Benji Diggs, her media maestro boss, that she’s got what it takes.

As the news heats up in a hotly contested election season and a wildcard candidate, former Hollywood actor Victor Fluke, appears on the scene, Amanda’s pressure-cooker job gets hotter while her personal life unravels. Walking a knife’s edge between ambition and survival, and about to break the biggest story of her career, Amanda must decide what she’s willing to give up to get ahead—and what she needs to hold onto to save herself.

Easy read and fun. Nice first novel; I could see Amanda's character teaching additional higher moral compass lessons for more than the media.

Fun read..enjoyed the parallels!

On its own the book was well written and helpful to understand the behind the scenes world and thought processes of journalists and the free press. I loved the comedic tones hit throughout as well as the realism of the love story that developed in the course of the book. That said, the book was infinitely more intriguing due to the amazing parallels to the 2016 election! Hoping Alisyn will consider a sequel so we can find out if Fluke ends up in the White House!

Amazing parallels!
