Twenty-four-year old Taylor Henning has just landed her dream job as an assistant at a major movie studio. But when her catty coworkers trick her into almost getting fired, she realizes that the old saying Hollywood is like school with money just may be true. The thing is, Taylor wasn't exactly a social butterfly in high school-how is she supposed to do any better the second time around?

That's when she meets her boss's popular sixteen-year-old daughter Quinn, and has an epiphany: maybe this teenager can teach her how to use her queen bee tactics to succeed in the Hollywood popularity contest. Quinn comes up with a plan to teach Taylor one lesson a week-everything from Fake it 'til you make it to It's *never* your fault --and soon Taylor finds herself winning the war against rival assistant Kylie. Until, that is, she's directed to steal Kylie's boyfriend, and something happens that's not in the game plan: Taylor falls for the guy. Now she must do the impossible-- harness her inner mean girl while staying true to herself.Hollywood is Like High School with Moneyis based in part on Zoey Dean's experiences as an assistant in Hollywood after college. She now divides her time between Los Angeles and New York City, her constant companion her shih tzu, Miss Vivien. (Named after Vivien Leigh-who doesn't loveGone with the Wind?) She is currently at work on her next novel.
