Publisher Description
This debut novel by Tilly Bagshawe has earned starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and Kirkus Reviews and is hailed as "simply intoxicating" by Library Journal. Called an escapist fantasy by the author, Adored is right at home alongside the best fiction from Danielle Steel and Jackie Collins. Bold and beautiful Siena McMahon wants to be a movie star like her grandfather. But her father, a bigshot producer, wants Siena to be a doctor. So Siena sets out on her own in this epic romance filled with glamourous characters and locales.

"Adored by Tilly Bagshawe, was Villa by Nora Roberts good. It was meaty and it had no hint of ever trying too hard. Nothing took me out of the story, not even the violence or the sex. It's amazing that that was Bagshawe's first book. I'm very jealous. In any case, I could scarcely put it down."
— Sarah (4 out of 5 stars)

" was ok, but i felt it dragged on a little.Still, i enjoyed it. "

" If you want a trashy chick-lit novel of epic proportions then definitely get this sucker. It's ENORMOUS and absolutely FULL of fluff, scandal, sexytimes, money and ridiculous circumstances. I *adore* it (had to go there). "
— Sparker, 2/5/2014 -
" Good fiction story. I enjoy books that bring you into to know the characters and this one did that for me. I got mad with her, sad, excited and disappointed! "

" Terrible terrible book. "

" More blunt than I expected; My first audiobook experience. I didn't think it followed freytag's pyramid very well, but I also don't think that hindered the book overall. "
— Angela, 9/21/2013 -
" I enjoyed it but then again every once in a while you have to read a book with Hollywood glamour and broken characters, not to mention sex and scandal! A very good example of "chick lit". "
— Jody, 8/10/2013 -
" ugh. Can't believe I read the whole thing... "
— Wendy, 8/5/2013 -
" this book was pretty crazy. A lot of drama. Kind of annoying but entertaining. Reminded me of a twisted modern version of gone with the wind in a weird way. "

" Such a trashy and guilty pleasure! Great summer read. "
— Ruth, 5/23/2013 -
" I really enjoyed this book. It was surprisingly deeper than most "chick lit" and I found it interesting and hard to put down. It does a good job of offering a different view of the hollywood life and the ups and downs of the business. I really enjoyed this book and would reccomend it! "

" It was my cheesy, I'm on vacation book and definitely served it's purpose. "
— Kim, 2/15/2011 -
" I really liked this book. It was long and involved and at times a bit racey. It follows the life of a beautiful spoiled rich girl in the fast life of show business. Good story. "
— Cheryl, 1/22/2011 -
" This was a great trashy novel. Perfect summer reading. It very much reminded me of an old Jackie Collins read (Chances, Lukcy, etc.). "
— Leslie, 7/30/2010 -

— Redfox5, 7/4/2009 -
" Good book...there were some very descriptive violent scenes, but other than that I loved the whole book! "
— Maria, 6/5/2009 -
" This book was super trashy and slutty and it was a waste of my time. I got through the first 5 chapters and was over it. "
— Jessica, 4/23/2009 -
" After I'd listened to Love Walked In by Marisa De Los Santos, Recorded Books recommended this book. "
— Larissa, 3/17/2009 -
" This was a very "sassy" book. Kind of like a nighttime soap opera in book form. Addictive. "
