The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo (Deluxe Edition)

The runaway #1 New York Times bestseller and BookTok global sensation. An epic, dazzling journey into the golden age of Hollywood, secrets, and a lifetime of forbidden love. Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous, scandalous life. But when she chooses Monique Grant, an unknown magazine reporter, to write her biography, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. Why her? Why now? Summoned to Evelyn’s luxurious Manhattan apartment, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the late ‘80s—and, of course, the seven husbands she met along the way—Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition, unexpected friendship, and a great forbidden love. But as Evelyn’s story nears its conclusion, it becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique’s own in tragic and irreversible ways.
