Everything She Wants

By Beth Killian

Book Overview

In the second book of Beth Killian's juicy 310 series, Hollywood newcomer Eva Cordes starts to unravel her family's dark secrets -- and creates some scandals of her own.

Aspiring actress Eva feels like she's finally on her way to the big time -- she's got new friends, a new life, and a starring role in a hot new commercial. And with Valentine's Day fast approaching, she's determined to finally "seal the deal" with her new boyfriend, Danny. But all her plans turn inside out when someone from her past shows up at her doorstep -- with an engagement ring ?

Eva swears the only guy she wants to be with is Danny, but he's starting to have doubts. So when she finds out the shocking truth about her father's identity, she has no one to turn to -- the guys are at each other's throats and her roommates are having a major catfight of their own.

Eva is about to make some tough choices...and if she's not careful, she may make the biggest mistake of her life.

Courtesy of Teens Read Too

The second book in Beth Killian's THE 310 series, EVERYTHING SHE WANTS, will live up to the expectations of readers who loved book number one! Eva is back in this fun new book, and her life is still as entertainingly and unrealistically dramatic as a made-for-TV movie. Eva is still trying to figure out her family (this time she's finding out more about her father), for one thing. For another, she's got boy trouble, just like any teenage girl! She thought she'd be happy with Danny, but things just aren't working out like Eva would have hoped. Why? Jeff, her best friend from high school, has shown up unexpectedly on Eva's doorstep. He's got some big plans that Eva does not want to be part of. He's got an engagement ring for Eva, and can't seem to understand why she keeps saying no! As is to be expected, this puts some stress on her relationship with Danny. If that was not enough, Eva and her roommates, Coelle and Jacinda, are having some problems as well. The three of them were just starting to actually be friends--but life in Hollywood is always dramatic, and this time the drama is invading their almost-harmonious home. Readers of The 310: Life as a Poser (The 310) will love this novel. It's highly recommended to have read The 310: Life as a Poser (The 310) before picking up EVERYTHING SHE WANTS, its equally entertaining and fun sequel. The fabulous characters readers met in the first book in THE 310 series are back, and the drama is just as good as before! Beth Killian has again created a fantastic story about life in Hollywood that readers won't be able to put down! Reviewed by: Jocelyn Pearce

The Second Book in the 310 Series

Beth Killian writes for the 310 Series. The second installment in the 310 series is titled Everything She Wants. The first book in the series was titled My Life as a Poser. Everything She Wants is all about Eva. Eva's acting career is on the rise but she has man problems. She shot a commercial that aired during the Superbowl and some think her fame is getting to her. She is totally in love with her new boyfriend Danny and she thinks for Valentine's Day he might propose, but it isn't Danny that comes with an engagement. Jeff, a guy from her past is suddenly back in her life. Everything She Wants is a really great book. If you are into the whole young Hollywood scene you will enjoy the fast pace of Everything She Wants.

You cant always get what you want...

This is the second book in the 310 series after 'Life as a Poser'. I really enjoyed the first one and loved this one almost as much. It continues right where the first left off, so I suggest that you read that before this one. I'm hoping for a third because this ended with a cliff hanger.

fine teen fiction

Eighteen years old model Eva Cordes has learned who her father is by sneaking into the files of her Aunt Laurel. Her two roommates Jacinda and Coelle inform her that her dad Anatole Farnsworth died just a few weeks after she was born and that she has three stepbrothers. Finally she knows her mother Marisela gave birth to another child. As she confronts her aunt and her mom for more information, her best friend Jeff Oerte from her hometown of Alden, Massachusetts arrives to propose marriage. Stunned as they never dated, Eva has a boyfriend, baseball pitcher Danny Bristow. As she struggles with the two men in her life and her battling roommates, Eva wants to avoid the errors of her mom. Though shunning her mom's destructive ways does not mean that Eva will elude personal miscalculation. The second 310 tale (see LIFE AS A POSER) is a fine teen fiction tale starring a somewhat dazzled but tough young lady needing to understand her paternal past while trying not to repeat the mistakes her mother made with her by abandoning her to her grandparents. The story line focuses on the interrelationships with Eva as the center and her two roommates and two beaus predominantly interacting with and through her. Though the plot can turn a bit inane even those moments augment the story line of this solid relationship drama. Harriet Klausner
