Josie O'Leary, twenty-eight, beautiful and Pilates-toned, intends to be president of a major movie studio and nothing will stop her--not an inconvenient husband, bitchy boss, or ignorance of making movies. She stumbles across her big chance: a can't-miss screenplay. Neurotic New Yorker Carla Trousse moves to L.A. after everything in her life (including ceilings) collapses around her. Carla's only talent is criticizing which comes in handy as a script reader. When Josie's script attracts the attention of powerful Henry Antonelli, a startling revelation results in an uneasy alliance between Josie and Carla.
