Could the worst day of her life be the beginning of her greatest adventure?Edith Ambrose's life shatters in three days. Her father has run away with another woman, and her fiancé has broken their engagement. Now, Edith feels like a stranger in her own little town. Every pursuit that used to bring her joy-tennis, singing, and playing the piano at the movie theatre-brings a flood of painful memories.
In an effort to escape, she moves to Hollywood to live with her eccentric and wealthy aunt, and begins taking stenographer classes. But one fateful evening at an ice-cream parlor, she meets Charlie Carnivall: a brilliant young actor/director for silent films. And to Edith's shock, he invites to sign her on as his next leading lady. As she is swept up into this burgeoning, circus-like universe of motion pictures, will Edith's past haunt and sabotage her future? Will Charlie's hidden wounds and insecurities destroy everything they are trying to work for? Or will the magic and unlimited possibilities of motion picture-along with the strength of their dreams-set them both free?Fans of The Greatest Showman, devotees of classic films, and dreamers of all ages will delight in the romance, nostalgia, drama and magic of Stardust!
