Motion picture producer Selena Ryan has the impossible: Fame and fortune and her integrity. Her reputation for playing fair in an industry rife with games has earned her respect from other producers, writers, and actors.

Dedicated to Barbara Stanwyck, who made every kind of movie a treat to watch. Strong, professional and hard-working, she has crept into more than one book.

She turned back to the mirror and Gail stepped behind her, wrapping her arms around her and resting her chin on Selena's shoulder. "Can I take a picture," the hairdresser asked. "For my portfolio?" "I don't care what you do with it," Selena answered. "As long as we get a copy." Gail startled at the flash. Selena patted her arm. "You'll get used to it, darling." "Stay close and I'll be okay." There was a crunch of slow-moving tires on the drive outside. "I promise," she said. She touched Gail's face. "The limo's here."
