When Holly Heckerling heads to Hollywood to work as an animal trainer on a big-budget movie, she finds herself fantasizing about leaving New York behind for good. But she's reluctant to say goodbye to her boyfriend, Tom, or Tallullah, the monkey who stole her heart during a pet-sitting assignment. Plus, even though she's in her element wrangling monkeys, ducks, and snakes, she isn't sure how to handle the A-list actor who's following her around like a lovesick puppy. Soon she realizes her real decision isn't where to live, but to whom she should give her heart.
Brenda Scott Royce spent 15 years in the publishing industry. She is now Director of Publications at the Los Angeles Zoo and editor of the zoo's award-winning quarterly magazine Zoo View. This is her first novel.
