Chapter 30
Chapter 30 “You and Celia didn't have any contact at all?” I ask. Evelyn shakes her head. She stands up and walks over to the window and opens it a crack. The breeze that streams in is welcome. When she sits back down, she looks at me, ready to move on to something else. But I’m too baffled. “How long were the two of you together by that point?” “Three years?” Evelyn says. “Just about.” “And she just left? Without another word?” Evelyn nods. “Did you try to call her?” She…-

Chapter 29
Chapter 29 For two months, I was living in near bliss. Celia and I never talked about Mick, because we didn’t have to. Instead, we could go wherever we wanted, do whatever we wanted.Celia bought a second car, a boring brown sedan, and left it parked in my driveway every night without anyone asking questions. We would sleep cradling each other, turning off the light an hour before we wanted to fall asleep so that we could talk in the darkness. I would trace the lines of her palm with my fingertips in the…-

The first thing you need to do to get a man to elope with you is to challenge him to go to Las Vegas.You do this by being out at an L.A. club and having a few drinks together. You ignore the impulse to roll your eyes at how eager he is to have his picture taken with you. You recognize that everyone is playing everyone else.…-

Chapter 20
Chapter 20 Ruby left me there, next to the dryer, with an empty cocktail glass in my hand.I needed to go back to the party. But I stood there, frozen, thinking, Get out of here. I just couldn’t turn the doorknob. And then the door opened on its own. Celia. The raucous, bright-lit party behind her.“Evelyn, what are you doing?”“How did you find me?”“I ran into Ruby, and she said I could find you drinking in the laundry room. I thought it was a euphemism.”“It wasn’t.”“I can see…-

Chapter 22
Chapter 22 “How did you remain so confident? So steadfast in your resolve?” I ask Evelyn.“When Don left me? Or when my career went down the tubes?”“Both, I guess,” I say. “I mean, you had Celia, so it’s a little different, but still.”Evelyn cocks her head slightly. “Different from what?”“Hm?” I say, lost in my own thoughts.“You said I had Celia, so it was a little different,” Evelyn clarifies. “Different from what?”“Sorry,” I say. “I was… in my own head.” I have…-

Chapter 23
Chapter 23 The morning after, I walked into Evelyn's office, anxiety tightening my chest so much that I could feel the sweat dripping down my back. My thoughts were running wild, making it hard to even focus on the conversation happening in front of me between Evelyn and Grace. As Grace set down a platter of charcuterie, my gaze was glued to the cornichons as I tried to push my nerves away. They chatted about Lisbon’s summer offerings, but my mind was far from the conversation, trapped in the upcoming…-

Chapter 24 Ari dropped me from any productions within Sunset and started offering to loan me out to Columbia. After being forced to do two forgettable romantic comedies—both of them so bad that it was a foregone conclusion they would fail spectacularly—the other studios didn’t want much of me, either.Don was on the cover of Life, gracefully coming out of the ocean onto the shore, smiling as if it was the best day of his life.When the 1960 Academy Awards came around, I was officially persona non…-

Chapter 25
Chapter 25 Celia was shooting a movie on location in Big Bear for three weeks. I knew that going with her wasn’t an option, nor was visiting her on the set. She insisted she would come home every weekend, but it felt too risky.She was a single girl, after all. I was afraid the prevailing wisdom erred too close to the question What do single girls have to go home to?So I decided it was the right time to go to France.Harry had some connections to filmmakers in Paris. He made a few calls on the sly for…-
