About The Book:
After a soul-crushing stint at music school, Sarah Mandelbaum thinks her star is finally on the rise when she’s recruited by the fabulous Fiona Campbell for a top spot at high-fashion Sophistiquée magazine. But almost as soon as she slips into her first pair of stilettos, Sarah realizes that between the plotting and scheming of the industry’s Fashion Flamingos and outrageous demands from Sophistiquée’s creative director Henri-François Bernard, her fall is imminent. Caught between the need to pay off her staggering student loans and the struggle to regain her self-confidence, Sarah seems completely stuck between that proverbial rock and a hard place. But with the help of a tattooed guitar teacher, a statuesque Southern pastry chef, 90-lb financial analyst with anger management issues, and a rockstar muse, she discovers the true path to her return. The question is: Will she take it?
About The Author:
Cara Kagan is a writer and musician who has contributed to many national magazines, including Self, Shape, Fitness, Glamour, Real Simple, InStyle, Harper’s Bazaar, and The New York Post Alexa section.
She got her start writing style and beauty in the trenches as an editor for the fashion and beauty bibleWomen’s Wear Daily, and then went on to become beauty and fitness director for both YM and Mode magazines. She is most proud of creating Girl, the first multi-cultural and multi-size fashion and beauty magazine for teens. Despite her wild hair, sensible shoes, and decidedly “basic” fashion sense, she also served as the beauty and fitness director of Elle magazine for several years.
In 1990, her Grandma Ruth Appelbaum insisted on inviting Andrew Kagan to her 90th birthday party completely against her wishes. They married in 1992 and now live in the Bronx with their two grey and white rescue kitties, Mouse and Clyde.
While she still mainly sings and plays guitar for her cats and guitar teacher, she hopes that one day soon, Sarah Mandelbaum will inspire her and she will finally get up the nerve to perform at an open mic. https://carakagan.com/
