“The Unraveling of
Cassidy Holmes is a page-turning peek inside the glamour and brutality of
life as a pop star. Sloan takes us on a wild ride through the world of music
video shoots, expensive hotels, and arena tours—showing us the darkness that
threatens just below the surface.” —Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Daisy
Jones and The Six

“I didn't know I was waiting for a smart, literary writer
to craft a novel about the rise and fall of a teen star akin to Britney Spears
until I discovered The Unraveling of Cassidy Holmes. A
witty, bright, hilarious—and at times devastating—read. I loved it." —Amanda Eyre Ward, New York Times bestselling author of The Jetsetters

Cassidy Holmes isn't just a celebrity.

She
is “Sassy Gloss,” the fourth member of the hottest pop group America has ever
seen. Hotter than Britney dancing with a snake, hotter
than Christina getting dirrty, Gloss was the pop act that everyone idolized. Fans couldn't get enough of them,
their music, and the drama that followed them like moths to a flame—until the
group’s sudden implosion in 2002. And at the center of it all was Sassy Cassy,
the Texan with a signature smirk that had everyone falling for her. 

But
now she's dead. Suicide.

The
world is reeling from this unexpected news, but no one is more shocked than the
three remaining Glossies. Fifteen years ago, Rose, Merry, and Yumi had been
the closest to Cassidy, and this loss is hitting them hard. Before the group split,
they each had a special bond with Cassidy—truths they told, secrets they
shared. But after years apart, each of them is wondering: what could they have done?

Told in multiple perspectives—including Cassidy
herself—and different timelines, this is a behind-the-scenes look into the rise
and fall of a pop icon, and a penetrating examination of the dark side of
celebrity and the industry that profits from it.
