Better Than Revenge

In Better Than Revenge by Kasie West, a noughties-set Hollywood novel, ambition and obsession collide in a deliciously sharp celebrity rivalry that’s impossible to look away from.

Nadine Heywood is determined to become the best actress in the world, and earning a place at London’s most prestigious drama school feels like her first real step toward the spotlight. Then she meets Harper Moore: magnetic, talented, and seemingly born to win. What begins as fierce competition quickly turns personal, and as auditions, breakouts and big-screen opportunities mount, their clashes refuse to stay behind closed doors.

Soon, Nadine and Harper’s every move is fodder for tabloids, fan forums and red-carpet speculation—fuelled by a feud that keeps evolving into something neither of them can neatly define.

Perfect for readers who love behind-the-scenes Hollywood drama, messy emotions, and stories about fame, power and the stories we tell the public.
