The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo: A Novel

Aging Hollywood icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous, scandalous life. She chooses an unknown magazine writer, Monique Grant, to tell it, and no one, including Monique, understands why. As Evelyn looks back from the 1950s to the 1980s, she describes her rise from Hell’s Kitchen to the silver screen, the ruthless choices that made her a star, and the seven marriages that kept the world talking. But the real story is the love she never let the public see, and the price she paid for protecting it. Monique soon learns that Evelyn’s secrets are more closely tied to her own life than she could have imagined. Taylor Jenkins Reid’s novel is a compelling tale of fame, ambition, and the cost of living a life on your own terms.
