1950's radio star,Maggie,who gets a big break with a baking show on the television.We follow the rise of Maggie's career in a time when women didn't usually have careers nor were they the “stars“ of the family and her life with her less than supportive husband.A well written read,I felt transported back to the 1950's whilst reading it. The descriptions were immersive and Maggie as a character along with her life struggles were a captivating read.

Whoa! What a roller coaster! Told in almost a reporter style, this story follows the career of Maggi Lane who seemed to represent the American housewife as she pursued her career in television from her youthful beginnings and failed love…to a married woman trying to balance career and husband.
