Two Real Hollywood Stars, What more could you ask for!

WoW, Audrey with Her big Doe eyes, and Bill with His sad puppy dog face. What a read! Their lives on display, intertwined with so many other stars, it's overwhelming. Ms. Hepburn's insecurities about Herself and Her acting ability; but yet, She always gave 110% and Her performances were always outstanding. Bill on the other hand, also a true professional wouldn't take a role unless His fee of $750,000.00 was guaranteed. They almost married after their affair while filming Sabrina, but He could not give Her children, and She so much wanted to be a mother. During a span of 25 years She did have 2 kids, and 4 mis-carriages in Her life and a bevy of lovers. Bill just had to smile😊 at a promising young starlet and she was His. NO MORE SPOILERS! Get the book, it's a fabulous read and truthful to a fault. Believe me.................. You won't be sorry you bought this book! ENJOY! R.jimmy G.
