Relatively Famous (Famous #1)
Sidney Tannen/Allen is the daughter of Hollywood's favorite couple. Her mother was America's sweetheart and her dad was the Hollywood Bad Boy. At age 13 Sidney get's the shock of her life when her parents marriage goes belly up with scandal all around it. Sidney's mother makes the decision to leave the Hollywood life and hide Sidney from the spot light and the inevitable media storm that will quickly ruin her life. 10 years later Sidney has stayed hidden and started a new life in New York. After all she went through as a child in Hollywood, Sidney cuts all ties to anything that has to do with that crazy world. Sidney's also been very standoffish with any new relationships and only her best friend Leah knows who she is and who her parents are. With her promising design career ahead of her there is still something missing and she wonders if she really knew the whole story behind the scandal surrounded breakup.
When Sidney meets Drew Forrester she struggles to move forward and trust him with her past. Drew knows that Sidney has no knowledge of anything about Hollywood and doesn't know why. Secrets are a scary thing in a new relationship and you find that Sidney isn't the only one hiding something. These secrets could ruin the first relationship either of them have ever really wanted before it's even begun.
I only had one thing holding me back from rating this a 5 star. I couldn't wrap my head around not having any knowledge of any TV, movies or music. It's hard to imagine a teenager cutting off all pop culture. Inadvertently there would have to be some information you would see or hear even if you don't own a TV, go to movies or listen to new music.
