After reading the first two books, I didn't think it could get much better...until this book came along! Normally with a lot of series, I find that they tend to go downhill after the first book, but this series just starts developing more and more. Between her career on the line and finding out she has Congestive Heart Failure, Liana heads to Europe to work on her latest movie. When she leaves Manny to go to Europe and meets Pierre along the way, a love triangle forms and hearts are on the line.

Starlet Light The Starlet Series #3 Carla J Hanna 9781484857540 Books Reviews

[Full disclosure I received a free print copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.]

Remember how I said Starlet's Run was better than the first book, Starlet's Web? Well Starlet's Light is better than both! The overall quality of writing is better, the characters are better as they mature and Carla Hanna's message comes through loud and clear but not in an obnoxious manner.

Finally Lia sets off on her own away from Manuel for a change and she also meets Pierre. I hope I'm not spoiling too much when I say that a love triangle happens. Yes, I was inwardly cringing when I thought I knew what Carla Hanna was doing to Lia's love life, but she had such an amazing twist on the love triangle that all was forgiven. In fact, more authors should do love triangles that way. It would certainly make for more interesting books and less one dimensional characters.

But while there is quite a bit of romance going on, Lia emerges as a character that isn't completely dependent on the men in her life. She has her own interests, both loves and hates her career as an actress and struggles to control her life despite her failing health. Lia grew quite a bit in the first and second books in the series, but it's really Starlet's Light where she becomes a memorable character. She doesn't have it easy and you can really feel her suffering, but with the help of her friends and her spirituality she makes it through to a sort of acceptance of her condition. Her realization at the end of the novel only makes you connect with her more. Lia's far from perfect and she realizes that, making her my favourite character in the series.

As I said about the first two books, this is not a book you read for the plot. No, this is a book you read for the message as well as the characters. And believe me, the message is terrifying as we get to see even more about how horrible Hollywood is behind the scenes. I had my own terrifying realization as well while reading this I'm fat. My dear little sister, who is described as a stick by pretty much everyone who sees her is fat. Why? Because we're not that Hollywood size 0. Now, this didn't make my self esteem plunge so much as make me realize how cookie-cutter the Hollywood ideal is. Seriously, Lia's skewed view of beauty in the beginning is terrifying once it's pointed out to you as a reader and it sends the message home better than any PSA or Dove Self-Esteem Project video.

If you haven't started the series yet, I'd highly recommend it. Even for those of us who don't like romance in general, the Starlet series is still a worthwhile read. If you like great main characters who actually grow throughout the series, you'll love it. And, of course, if you've already read the first two books you'll love the third installment of the series.

I give this book 5/5 stars.
This is the third and final installment in the series and we are drawn back into the drama that Liana Marie Michael’s life is. With work taking her to Europe and meeting Pierre one would think that Liana has enough on her plate. Throw in Manuel and her mother’s failing health, Liana is kept on her toes throughout the book.

Liana is off to Wales to shoot for her next big project. This gives her a chance to meet her European friend, Pierre, with whom she has been corresponding for quite some time. It also gives her a chance to evaluate her feelings for both Manuel and Pierre as she comes to conclude that she cares quite a bit for Pierre. I finally see some chemistry in this book. Pierre and Liana have something that feels quite tangible. Manuel continues to be in Liana’s life in some way or the other and I dislike him more and more. He certainly doesn’t deserve Liana and Liana too, deserves someone much better than him. So, who does she finally end up with? Read the book to find out.

Throughout the series, I feel Liana’s dad is the only one who tries to bring some sense of normalcy in her life. For that I adored him. Liana’s Dad and step mom have a good perspective of her life and they continue to try and be there for her. Thankfully I felt the drama aspect of the book was much more controlled than the second book in the series. As such, it was easier to read the book in one sitting.

To round up the series, it is for those who like YA Dramas and quite an entertaining one at that.
I did not buy this book I don't know who has gotten a hold of my account but they have been going crazy downloading books & charging it to my card I don't know who to contact about getting my money back I don't want the book please help me
Starlet's Light launched me right onto the set of a feature film where the director will blow up a castle. My kind of movie! I didn't read the other books but had no problem getting right into the book. It was well-written with a great balance of description, action, and dialogue from the perspective of Lia, a mixed-race super hot sweet actress. 5-stars for writing.

The plot was tight and believable. Lia goes from movie set to hospital, working while dealing with illness. We've all been there. You have to either push through or feel sorry for yourself. Lia's no whiner. 5-stars for story.

Pierre. Dude. No. I'm a guy. He'd make his move sooner. She's hot and sweet and with a spoiler, come on - there's no way you'd hike around the Alps with such hotness and not keep her locked up in your mansion forever. You'd give a girl like that the world. Manuel deserves her. Pierre does not. 4-stars for Pierre.

Overall, 4.75, rounded to 5. Well-written, great story with Manuel as a dude and Pierre as a dud.
I agree with other reviewers. This was the best book in the series so far. The entire series has been an eyeopening read, but there's just something special about this one. As with a hormonal teenager, the series is an emotional rollercoaster. There's love, drama, and even humor. If you enjoy young adult and new adult romance, you're going to love Starlet's Light.
