Publisher Comments:

Fans of Lauren Conrads L.A. Candy series will love this YA novel by internet stars Elle and Blair Fowler, which offers a scintillating glimpse into the glitzy L.A. social scene When Sophia and Ava London moved to Los Angeles to further their makeup and fashion line, London Calling, they expected to meet super stars, not become them. However, when their little business becomes a big deal with the help of an ever growing internet fan base, the sisters enter into the exclusive life of fabulous parties, air kisses, and scores of hot guys. Faster than you can say "Now get out Mac brush #13 and blend," they have tie in deals with international jewelry companies, major clothing retailers, and—one of their biggest dreams—an offer from Lux Life makeup for their own London Calling line. But fame has a price, and when the sisters are betrayed by someone they trust, they find themselves knee-deep in a scandal that could ruin everything they've worked for—and send all their dreams crashing down.This deliciously glitzy romp through star-studded L.A. is loosely based on the authors own experiences. Elle and Blair Fowler began posting make-up tutorials on YouTube and quickly became an internet sensation. Their videos have garnered a combined total of 148 million hits; they were nominated for a Teen Choice Award for Best Web Star; and they currently have their own make-up line and reality show in development. Elle and Blair have an ravenous online fan base that will love a sneak peek into their glamorous world!

Synopsis:

From internet stars Elle and Blair Fowler comes a scintillating new novel that takes readers Beneath the Glitter of the glitzy L.A. social scene.

Welcome to a place where dreams are made.  And where nothing—and no one—is ever what it seems.

After their make-up and fashion videos went viral on YouTube, sisters Sophia and Ava London are thrust into the exclusive life of the Los Angeles elite.  Here fabulous parties, air kisses, paparazzi and hot guys all come with the scene. Sophia finds herself torn between a gorgeous bartender and a millionaire playboy, and Ava starts dating an A-list actor.  But as theyre about to discover, the life theyve always dreamed of comes with a cost.

Beneath the glitter of the Hollywood social scene lies a world of ruthless ambition, vicious gossip…and betrayal.  Someone close to them, someone they trust, is working in the shadows to bring the London sisters falling down. And once the betrayal is complete, Sophia and Ava find themselves knee-deep in a scandal that could take away everything they care about, including the one thing that matters most—each other.
