Beyond the Blonde

Welcome to the Jean-Luc Salon, New Yorks hottest salon of the minute, where high above Madison Avenue, Georgia Watkinssmall-town girl turned star coloristtends to the hair of socialites and actresses, models and moguls. Watching her single mother struggle to keep her beauty parlor afloat in rural New Hampshire, Georgia knew she wanted more. After a stint at Wilfred Academy, Georgia landed a job at Jean-Luc and moved to New York. There, she is thrust into a glittering over-the-top world where she finds herself highlighting dogs hair to match that of their owners, making house calls to the Hamptons, and barely batting a well-groomed eyelash at a thousand dollar tip. A rising star in the salon, Georgia is far too busy for romance or even a day offuntil she finds that her quiet, handsome colleague Massimo has more to offer than mere styling pointers. But when Jean-Luc betrays them in an unthinkable turn of events, Georgia finds her loyalty and love are put to the test, and she must depend on the most unlikely sources to help her navigate the ugly side of the world of beauty.Flynn-Hui, Kathleen is the author of 'Beyond the Blonde ', published 2006 under ISBN 9780446694520 and ISBN 0446694525.
