Presenting a dazzling new historical novel ... The Girl From The Savoy
is as sparkling as champagne and as thrilling as the era itself.
'Sometimes life gives you cotton stockings. Sometimes it gives you a
Chanel gown ...'
Dolly Lane is a dreamer; a downtrodden maid who longs to dance on the
London stage, but her life has been fractured by the Great War. Memories
of the soldier she loved, of secret shame and profound loss, by turns
pull her back and spur her on to make a better life.
When she finds employment as a chambermaid at London's grandest hotel,
The Savoy, Dolly takes a step closer to the glittering lives of the
Bright Young Things who thrive on champagne, jazz and rebellion. Right
now, she must exist on the fringes of power, wealth and glamor--she must
remain invisible and unimportant.
But her fortunes take an unexpected turn when she responds to a
struggling songwriter's advertisement for a 'muse' and finds herself
thrust into London's exhilarating theatre scene and into the lives of
celebrated actress, Loretta May, and her brother, Perry. Loretta and
Perry may have the life Dolly aspires to, but they too are searching for
something.
Now, at the precipice of the life she has and the one she longs for, the
girl from The Savoy must make difficult choices: between two men;
between two classes, between everything she knows and everything she
dreams of. A brighter future is tantalizingly close--but can a girl like
Dolly ever truly leave her past behind?
