"Whomever they cast couldn’t discharge sex like Marilyn, nor could she be young and innocent without provoking cries of Lolita. Furthermore, as a "good" call girl–not the Elizabeth Taylor kind that gets killed off at the end of Butterfield 8–Holly couldn’t be too seductive. Not alluring enough, however, and the character would have no call-girl credibility at all."

No one could come close to Audrey Hepburn - classic and classy.
Fantastic! This book looks interesting. Thanks for sharing! My teaser is here.
Audrey Hepburn…a star as much as she was a woman.

Amazing to find this book! I have read it and thought it rather obscure. It was a so-so read for me.
Your teaser is a goodie!!
Happy New Year
:)
Great teaser, this looks great, I'll have to check it out. I'm a new follower, by the way!
I love this cover. Enough said.
I remember that Audrey was a relative unknown when they cast her for this part.
Here is mine
I have seen this book around everywhere, and based on your snippet, it sounds rather interesting. One that I will be looking for for sure!
This is a great tease. My daughter and I have been having a slight love affair with Breakfast at Tiffanys of late so this would be perfect.
Was anybody ever as elegant as Audrey Hepburn? Thanks for posting this terrific teaser.
