Aus der Rolle gefallen
Ein lesbischer Liebesroman an dessen Ende sich keiner mehr ans Drehbuch hält.
Die britisch distanzierte Star-Schauspielerin Elizabeth Thornton spielt Amerikas meist gehassten Bösewicht in einer populären Ärzteserie. Eine Rolle, die sie verabscheut. Zu allem Übel wird ihr wegen der Tollpatschigkeit ihrer neuen, chronisch gut gelaunten Co-Schauspielerin Summer Hayes auch noch eine romantische Beziehung zu eben jener nachgesagt. Als ungeoutete Schauspielerin kann Elizabeth das gar nicht gebrauchen. Überraschend rückt eines Tages ihre Traumrolle in greifbare Nähe.
Das einzige Problem? Der exzentrische französische Regisseur besteht darauf zuerst ihre »Freundin« Summer kennenzulernen.

It is a good book, even if, subjectively speaking, the beginning feels a bit drawn out. The relationship develops slowly and convincingly; however, the circumstances are portrayed somewhat melodramatically, and by the end, I had a "WTF" moment regarding one of the minor characters.
Summer is a true ray of sunshine and is quite smitten with Elizabeth. She serves as a wonderful complement to Elizabeth, who possesses a rather withdrawn and misunderstood personality. I wouldn't describe Elizabeth as an "Ice Queen", even though almost all the other characters view her as such, with some even going so far as to flee from her.
The age gap is mentioned, but it immediately becomes irrelevant to the story.
The intimate scenes in the middle of the book are quite hot, even if its "only" being acted out.
I hated the character Grace ... such an arrogant diva.
