**From a** New York Times **–bestselling author, comes this “highly entertaining tale [with] considerable humor and some cynical fun at the expense of the book business” (** Publishers Weekly **).** At Davis & Dash, one of New York’s most prestigious publishing houses, five new authors will be published—but only one of them will be a bestseller. They have worked long and hard to write their novels of romance and murder, drama and love, but the story behind the stories is even more exciting. And the vicious competition to get the right agent, the perfect editor, and the choice spot on the bestseller list must be seen to be believed. From the author of *The First Wives Club* , this “dishy” novel set in New York’s book publishing industry ( *Glamour* ) is a fun behind-the-scenes romp with “lots of romance and revenge” ( *The Washington Post Book World* ). “Extremely satisfying.” — *The New York Times Book Review*
