Publisher's Summary
How to upend your life:
- Get fired by gross, handsy boss
- Fail to do laundry (again)
- Be mistaken for famous Chinese actress
- Fall head-first into glitzy new world
Gracie Reed is doing just fine. Sure, she was fired by her overly “friendly” boss, and yes, she still hasn’t gotten her mother into the nursing home of their dreams, but she’s healthy, she’s (somewhat) happy, and she’s (mostly) holding it all together.
But when a mysterious SUV pulls up beside her, revealing Chinese cinema's golden couple Wei Fangli and Sam Yao, Gracie’s world is turned on its head. The famous actress has a proposition: Due to their uncanny resemblance, Fangli wants Gracie to be her stand-in. The catch? Gracie will have to be escorted by Sam, the most attractive - and infuriating - man Gracie’s ever met.
If it means getting the money she needs for her mother, Gracie’s in. Soon Gracie moves into a world of luxury she never knew existed. But resisting Sam, and playing the role of an elegant movie star, proves more difficult than she ever imagined - especially when she learns the real reason Fangli so desperately needs her help. In the end, all the lists in the world won’t be able to help Gracie keep up this elaborate ruse without losing herself...and her heart.

Gripping!
Phillipa Soo's reading skills are really extraordinary. For my first book on Audible, I was a bit sceptical whether I would be able to enjoy it but man, was I proved wrong! This is an awesome production!

Satisfying
The story thrives more while exploring the dynamics of a "normal person" experiencing the celebrity life. The rom-com part of it felt forced, but was good enough. The narration and pacing of the story were the 2 main highlights for me. Overall a satisfying book.

Chinese Drama, precisely!
At it was kinda cute like a audio kdrama but then as the story progresses you will realize there is literally the bare minimum for conflict. Don't get me wrong! cheesy is right up my ally, but as a regular kdrama lover even those have real world problem resolved in a semi-real worldly way. But this drama.. Oops BOOK is something that exists in it's own sugary bubble, like a chinese drama where nothing nothing bad can ever happen and CEOS and RICH movie actors can be found on every street corner. So! my thoughts? If you are cheesy story lover you WILL LOVEEE THIS!
The performances are great, thankgod! She is so talented!
