![]() ![]() I will warn you, friction between them runs high for much of the book. As soon as he meets Summer, the differences are glaringly obvious. In contrast, Cole hasn’t had to lift a finger without an assistant’s help in over a decade. Summer has worked hard for everything she has, even if it doesn’t look like much to outsiders. (The secondary characters were also awesome!) I thought Summer was very likeable and I absolutely loved her as a character. ![]() However, she is also lonely and only shows her soft under-belly to the few people close to her. She is fierce, strong, independent, and most certainly talked about behind closed doors by Quincy’s high-society. Just like Lizzie Bennett, Summer is a spitfire and a force to be reckoned with. Cole and Summer are very much like Darcy and Elizabeth–Summer’s Southern pride is on full display, contrasted by Cole’s prejudice toward the ‘country bumpkins’ and anything non-Hollywood. ![]() I think the best way to describe this story is Pride and Prejudice meets Steel Magnolias. Quincy is a small town steeped in Southern tradition–one where the citizens will say “Bless your heart” to your face, then gossip behind your back. Cole is a Hollywood megastar, while Summer is a good Southern girl living in Quincy, Georgia. Hollywood Dirt by Alessandra Torre is a fun, light-hearted, and sexy story about Cole Masten and Summer Jenkins. ![]()
