Summary

With a little one on the way, Jack Wood and Alice Rooney are forced into a volatile marriage. Damaged by her own dysfunctional childhood, Alice shows little affection towards little Lizzie.

Lizzie's saving grace is her loving grandmother, Mrs. Wood, who introduces her to the Madame Bella's Academy for the theatrical arts.

Though still very young and innocent, will Lizzie's dream of a glittering theatrical future ever come true?

Disappointed

I persevered to the end although by third of the way I was disturbed by sound of the mother grumbling and shouting. CONTINUALLY!
Did not enjoy this book at all.
Always like Julia Barrie narrating. She portrays all the characters voices well.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
