The Hollywood Assistant; A Novel BY May Cobb

Cassidy, feeling stuck and obsessing over plants to distract from her woes, receives a lifeline when a well-connected friend secures her a job as personal assistant to the Sterlings. Seduced by the promise of luxury and the chance to revive her dreams of writing, Cassidy eagerly relocates to sunny LA.

The Sterlings initially appear idyllic—a perfect couple offering Cassidy designer clothes, a sparkling pool, and generous pay for minimal duties. Nate, charismatic and talented, takes a keen interest in Cassidy's literary aspirations, drawing her deeper into their inner circle. As their professional relationship blurs with personal attraction, Cassidy is both exhilarated and unnerved by Nate's attention, especially amidst his tumultuous relationship with Marisol.

However, Cassidy soon discovers that her role in the Sterling household is not what it seems. Behind closed doors, the couple's relationship is fraught with tension and secrets. Marisol's perfection masks a darker reality, and as Cassidy unwittingly becomes entangled in their web, she finds herself implicated when tragedy strikes and one of the Sterlings is found dead.

Now, Cassidy must navigate treacherous Hollywood waters where appearances deceive and alliances shift. Accused as the prime suspect, Cassidy races to uncover the truth about the Sterlings—a truth that could either exonerate her or seal her fate forever.

This suspenseful novel explores themes of ambition, deception, and the allure of fame, offering readers a voyeuristic peek into the glamorous yet perilous world of Hollywood's elite, where nothing is as it seems and trust is a luxury in short supply.
