A Beautiful Rival (2023)
Gill Paul
"A delicious page-turner of a novel about the rivalry between beauty titans Elizabeth Arden & Helena Rubinstein. Spanning two world wars and full of fascinating period detail, I really enjoyed this story about two formidable women, driven by a mutual desire to succeed, no matter what."
