It was love at first sight. A romantic comedy told from both sides, from that magical land we call "Hollywood". She's trying to break into the movie industry. He writes hit movies. Together they're a big mess. FREE 2-day Prime shipping. His side of the story: As I described my next big movie, the executive producers checked their phones, tweeted, and sipped lattes. It looked hopeless. But when I finished, they looked up, muttered, cursed, and signed my $3-million development deal. Karen, the intern who had handed out the lattes, looked stunned. "I'll help you write it," she interrupted. "Sorry, but who are you?" I asked. "I'm your new intern," said Karen. "Intern? I don't have any interns." "You do now!" I shook my head."Writers don't have interns." "Why not?" "We work at home..." "Great. Give me a key to your house and we'll get to work at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." "Forget it. That's not going to happen," I laughed. I wasn't sure what was crazier; this intern, or the idea of getting up at 8 in the morning. Me? No way. But a few days later, she was moving all her stuff into my guest room at my Malibu beach house. I had the perfect life. A movie star girlfriend. A career in movies. But all that changed when this crazy intern arrived. She was like a human wrecking ball. But who couldn't help but love her anyway? Her side of the story: A recent phone call between the intern and her best friend: [(c) 2019, reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.] "Ashley, I'm going to be famous. They wrote a book about me," said Karen, the intern, into her phone. "It's called Hollywood Intern." "Really? Never heard of it." "Check it out. It's on Amazon. I'll send you a copy." "Anybody reading it?" "You bet. I think it's going to be a bestseller." "You Hollywood people," said Ashley, doubtfully. "I suppose you're going to make it into a movie?" "Of course. That's what we do." "Why would they make a movie about you?" "Oh, thanks," she said sarcastically. "What are you? Another internet troll? They wrote a book about me, and are going to turn it into a movie. Can't you be happy for me?" "Not if you don't give me a part in the movie," Ashley said. "Hey, you know how sports teams are always trading their players? What if I trade you in for another best friend?" "As long as you trade me to Hawaii or Miami Beach. Just give me some of that warm weather. I froze my butt off last winter up here in Rochester, New York." "You think that was cold? Hah! I was thinking of trading you to Alaska. To a reality TV show Real Housewives of the Eskimos." "Please do! With global warming, that could work out perfect. Just put me on the coast. I'll open a tropical beach bar in Anchorage. I'll rent out kayaks, and sell Mai Tai cocktails with little umbrellas in them." A high quality 6x9-inch paperback-the same size as a hardcover book, but with a glossy color cover.
