Fall 1942. When her Hollywood private detective daddy is called back to uniform, Fancy Anders is issued orders of her own - answer the phone, make referrals, and keep the place dusted. But the 24-year-old Barnard grad - whose hobbies include shooting, flying, and jujitsu - isn’t having any. At Amalgamated Aircraft, a young female worker chosen to pose for patriotic photos and posters has met with a suspicious “accidental death”. Fancy takes the victim’s place on the swing shift, fitting in well with coworkers very much not from high society circles.

Ten-year-old Bess is only good at one thing—singing, which has no place in her family's bleak existence. When her father sells her to the king of England, she balances the loss of all she's known against a world of music and plenty, and builds a new life as a royal minstrel, earning the nickname "the king's songbird." Bess comes of age in the dangerous Tudor court, where the stakes are always high, and where politics, heartbreak, and disease threaten everyone from the king to the lowliest musician.

From the dramatic redbrick facade to the sweeping staircase dripping with art, the Chelsea Hotel has long been New York City's creative oasis for the many artists, writers, musicians, actors, filmmakers, and poets who have called it home - a scene playwright Hazel Riley and actress Maxine Mead are determined to use to their advantage. Yet they soon discover that the greatest obstacle to putting up a show on Broadway has nothing to do with their art and everything to do with politics. A Red scare is sweeping across America, and Senator McCarthy has started a witch hunt for Communists.

Resumen del Editor
When the curtain rises on an entirely new life, some will stumble and some will soar.
With the end of World War II finally in sight, Ensign Luke Valenti heads home to Los Angeles, eager to be reunited with the girl he left behind. As Luke navigates his rocky transition to peacetime, he yearns for a quiet return to civilian life, but discovers the US Navy plans to make him its war-hero poster boy and keep him squarely in the spotlight.
On the other side of fame sits Luke’s home-front sweetheart, Nell Davenport, who, during Luke’s absence, has blossomed in an unexpected career. Thrilled by the excitement following her musical debut, Nell is unaware that every step she takes on the precarious road to success brings her and Luke closer to a revelation that could shatter the fragile life they are struggling to rebuild amid the aftermath of war.
From the author of the Hollywood’s Garden of Allah novels comes book three in the Hollywood Home Front trilogy. You Must Remember This is the story of two people striving to adapt to a world they no longer know.

Nick is wonderful, but he comes with unimaginable baggage.
