Description
In her electrifying first novel, Nicole Richie tells the sensational story of Chloe Parker, a rock royalty princess and a card-carrying member of Hollywood's inner circle. At the age of seven, Chloe was adopted by a music superstar and his wife, transforming her life from rags to riches. What followed was a wild childhood distinguished by parties with movie stars and rock idols, run-ins with the press and the police, and a subsequent stint in rehab.Suddenly Chloe shoots to instant fame as a show more spokesmodel for a national ad campaign. When her long-lost birth father appears out of nowhere and her best friend betrays her, she must struggle to keep it all together — her sobriety, her friendships, and her integrity despite the betrayals of those around her. Ultimately, Chloe comes spectacularly into her own, achieving stardom in her own right and finding true love.
Through the eyes of the captivating Chloe and the talented voice of Nicole Richie, we are given a no-holds-barred look at Hollywood's new elite, behind the velvet ropes, inside star-studded premieres and parties. Whether they're doing the "circuit" (begin with shopping at Barneys New York, Marni, and Fred Segal, then end with the grilled vegetable salad at the Ivy), or ending up on the front page of your favorite weekly magazine, Chloe Parker and her fellow A-listers never fail to dazzle, their larger-than-life dramas more riveting than any reality show.

I thought this was going to be a self-indulgent, vapid account of celebrity life. Instead, it impressed me as a simple read that's very easy to get into and keeps your attention without a doubt. It's written with a somewhat raw honesty and laced with the dry, sarcastic humor that Richie is known for. It's interesting to see her out of the spotlight and glamour, and simply speaking from her own point of view. For once, her audience gets a glimpse of Nicole Richie - actual human being.
A personal biography of the heiress Nicole Richie (or along the lines of). I enjoyed it because i wasnt expecting such a thrilling read! Nicole Richie isnt just a pretty face after all!
