When the action of the play starts, Lulu has been rescued by the rich newspaper publisher Dr Schön from a life on the streets with her alleged father, the petty criminal Schigolch. Dr Schön has taken Lulu under his wing, educated her and made her his lover. Wishing however to make a more socially advantageous match for himself, he has married her off to the medic Dr Goll.

    Molly Pink and the Tarzana Hookers have to read between the lines when a bookstore event turns fatal. 
     
     
     
    There's never a dull moment for amateur sleuth Molly Pink. Without warning, her infant granddaughter has been dumped in her lap for babysitting duties, her son has reluctantly enlisted her help investigating a potential investor in his business, and now she has to manage a high-profile bookstore event for a former Hollywood columnist who's dishing the dirt in a juicy tell-all. And when the author collapses and dies in the store just as she's about to reveal an incriminating tidbit, the police suspect foul play and zero in on Molly as the likely culprit. 
     
     
     
    Getting herself off the hook won't be easy, but Molly and the Tarzana Hookers are convinced that whoever did the deed wanted to silence the author before she could expose their dark secret. As the police continue to needle Molly, certain she's trying to pull the wool over their eyes with her claims of innocence, she's also in over her head in a mommy group run by Hollywood power couples—all of whom may have something to hide. As she finally stitches together the loose ends and figures out the killer's identity, they decide it's time to silence her too, and Molly has to think fast before she makes a quick trip from her granddaughter's cradle to the grave . . .

    I've got three months before I'll be crowned King of Elleston—all because I was born two minutes before my twin brother. I thought I'd have more time, but with my father's recent death and fifty million people looking at me to lead, it's time to put aside my personal aspirations and take the crown. 
     
     
     
    Duty. Honor. Royalty. 
     
     
     
    Love is a luxury I don't have—not with a royal betrothal our laws demands I uphold. 
     
     
     
    The lines that define my choices are black and white. 
     
     
     
    But when I collide with a pink-haired American goddess who brings my world back into startling color, I know I can't take the crown without tasting her first. Willa is everything I've ever wanted—smart, sexy, funny, and wickedly independent. She accepts the stakes, knows our relationship has an expiration date, but I'm prepared to take on Parliament and the other Royals to make her officially mine. 
     
     
     
    That is, until I find out that she's hiding secrets of her own. Secrets that could ruin everything I've worked for to keep us together. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.
