Family Chorus — Claire Rayner

How many hearts will a woman break tor each the top? Lexie Asher had talent and looks, and nerve - but more than that she had charm. And she knew how to get her own way. She could will her own way out of the slums and onto the West End stage. She could will her way out of everythins that was poor or ordinary or tedious and make herself a star. And in her quest for fame there was nothing that would get in her way, not even the man she loved or the child she secretly bore.
