Epic Love. Tragic Loss. Beautiful Friendship. The entrancing story of an orphan who grows up surrounded by the beautiful and the broken in the world's most infamous hotel.
After her parents' deaths, Aria Jones is sent to live with her reclusive starlet aunt at the Chateau Marmont, the hotel on Hollywood Boulevard with a notorious reputation.
Left alone to wander the hotel, Aria sees everything-all the ways people wheel and deal for fame. But the Marmont isn't meant for young girls with big hearts, and Aria discovers an insidious secret that will haunt her childhood.
As she matures, she finds solace in the hotel's library. Her sole goal is to be as inconspicuous as possible. Until one day, the hotel is sold to mysterious rock star Theo Winchester and his troubled daughter, Adele. Will Aria realise there's more to life than being invisible?
Captivating from its very first page, The Chateau on Sunset blends the beloved Jane Eyre story with the rich and colourful history of the entertainment industry from the 1950s to the 1970s.
Praise for The Chateau on Sunset:
'A triumph of storytelling. From its mesmerising prologue to the perfect last line, Natasha Lester weaves a smart, intoxicating tale of secrets and ghosts inside the famous walls of Hollywood's Chateau Marmont, which becomes a character all of its own. Beautifully written and compulsively told, Lester's latest is a clever reimagining of Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, with subtle nods to the classic text which are an absolute joy to discover. It is also a novel with a deeply feminist heartbeat. I loved it' HAZEL GAYNOR, author of Before Dorothy
