Stella Spencer has one enemy—her secrets.

The world’s obsession with the Bright Young Things is real. Every lavish party thrown by the most exclusive group in New York is a spectacle, stalked not only by the media, but by the police commissioner, who’s declared war. He’s out to ruin everyone’s good time, starting with uncovering the mysterious benefactor leading the group, thus answering the question on everyone’s lips.

Who is Cecelia Beaton?

And no one knows it’s Stella.

If society finds out the truth, her plans will unravel. And with one smoldering look from a stranger, her carefully ordered world catches fire.

Levi Hunt has one plan—get the story.

His future at Vagabond magazine depends on his ability to do the one thing no one can: infiltrate the Bright Young Things. If he can find out who Cecelia Beaton is, he’ll earn enough notoriety to permanently secure his career.

His dreams are at his fingertips, so long as he doesn’t blow his cover. But one night with the brightest, most brilliant young thing of all, and he knows he’ll have to make a choice.

The job he loves or the woman of his dreams.

Secrets and lies. Love and laughter. And two people with something to hide and everything to gain.

Welcome to the party.


REVIEW
I legit love the idea and aesthetic of this series. Can y'all imagine if this was a thing?! I'd want to be a part of this secret society so bad! Can I at least live through it in a netflix series?? Make it happen omg.

Ok, ok. I've calmed down ahah. But for real, this was an amazing introduction to what is bound to be an epic series! I am so curious about who the next couple will be but I'll legit take anyone, I just want more! 

An undercover journalist who falls in love with the mystery woman behind the secret society that has everyone curious, furious and freaking jealous. Can we talk about epic plotline? The secret Stella and her friends hold so close is the secret Levi is out to uncover. Neither of them expects the other nor for their no strings attached fun to turn into the love of their life. There are many secrets between them, a boss forcing Levi's hand, a comissioner threating Stella and the Bright Young Things and who knows who else but together they face it all... the exboyfriend drama, the secrets and lies, the comissioner and anything that will stand in their way. These two are from different sides of the tracks but together they are magic, they are fireworks. 

Star Bright is a fabulous, vivid and aesthetically pleasing story that felt like such a breath of fresh air. It's got drama, secrets and a little mystery. It's one book you'll wish you could jump into its pages and become one its characters so you could live through one of their fabulously epic and fun parties.

Although Stella and Levi's story wraps up, the mystery plotline is not entirely solved and it probably won't be until the last book in the series. I don't know how many there will be, nor who the couples are but I'm guessing that each book in the series is of a different couple but the major mystery plotline will only wrap up in the last book so keep that in mind. I honestly love when this happens, although I don't like waiting too much, I love the part where I get to come up with all the theories and then see how much those stories match or differ from the actual book. That's always super fun for me and I can't wait to see what happens in the next book!

Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life -- a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can't forget that. She's also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She's been a wife, though she's certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She's also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she's been drinking whiskey. When she's not writing, she's reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.
