Hollywood Hook by Mamie Center

Synopsis: An erotic debut novel featuring a young actress who makes a deal with a hotshot Hollywood producer: in exchange for stardom, she’ll do whatever he tells her—including fulfilling his darkest desires. When promising young actress Jessica Barry moves to Hollywood in search of stardom, she gets more than she bargained for. Jacob, a Hollywood producer who knows everyone, assures Jessica that he will help her rise to the top of the business, as long as she does “exactly what he tells her.” She soon discovers this involves following every one of his sexually sadistic rules—including obeying his second in command, Magali, a gorgeous Frenchwoman who toys with Jessica, sexually teasing and tormenting her.

In exchange for stardom, Jessica must seduce Hollywood superstar Thomas Mansell. Using the newfound powers taught to her by Magali, Jessica wins Thomas’s heart. But when Jessica actually falls in love with Thomas, Jacob cruelly reminds her that he owns her—body and mind. Erotic and sensual, this is the side of Hollywood that no one dares to talk about.

Review: Mamie Center's novel Hollywood Hook is a unique erotic novel filled with sex, love and plenty of drama. I think the thing that really hooked me about this book was the rawness of Jessica's character and the situations she got caught up in. She is definitely a flawed character and the decisions she makes often lead her down the wrong road. If you're looking for a lighthearted erotic read, this is probably not the book for you. Hollywood Hook is somewhat a roller coaster of emotions because of the decisions and actions made by the main character. But I  really think readers will really enjoy this story because not only are there some steamy scenes, but the characters are realistic and fun to read about.

Rating: 3/5 DIAMONDS
