I know that probably sounds crass, but it's the truth. A true confession. \u003c\/i\u003eLike all would-be Hollywood screenwriters, David Armitage wants to be rich and famous. But for the past eleven years, he's tasted nothing but failure. Then, out of nowhere, big-time luck comes his way when one of his scripts is bought for television. Before you can say \"overnight success,\" he's the new toast of Hollywood as the creator of a hit series. Suddenly a major player, he finds that he's reinventing himself at a great speed, especially when it comes to walking out on his wife and daughter for a young producer who worships only at the altar of ambition. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e But David's upward mobility takes a decidedly strange turn when a billionaire film buff named Philip Fleck barges into his life, proposing a very curious collaboration. David takes the bait and suddenly finds himself inadvertently entering into a Faustian pact and an express ride to the lower depths of the Hollywood jungle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atria Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/24\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781451602104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.20w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/2011 pg. 59\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2011 pg. 51\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eRomantic Times\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2011 pg. 55 - Excellent\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/19\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2012 pg. 46\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/04\/2012\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Douglas Kennedy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36651355406492,"sku":"9781451602104","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_166c50a7-f442-4954-8a7b-25eba10bc4e8.jpg?v=1603877465","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/temptation-9781451602104","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
