"She is going to sell you something and you will buy it."
It's Fashion Week and Lower Manhattan churns with construction on the third anniversary of 9/11, as Emma O'Farrell Paige arrives at the federal courthouse to depose her former boss, the diabolical villain behind a counterfeit perfume ring.
With little more than tenacity and courage, Emma breaks free from her dysfunctional Midwest childhood and fights for her long-distance marriage to independent league baseball pitcher Ethan Paige, as she plays to win among world-class dealmakers in the trenches of the international beauty biz.
Under the guidance of mentor and boss Julian Petrenko, Emma masterminds the two-hundred-million-dollar fragrance deal with boy band sensation 'UK Connection'. When the deal of the decade reveals the underbelly of the vaulted Beautyland, Emma is forced to examine herself as closely as she's studied the beauty game.

Beautyland is hard to put down, engaging the reader from the first word, a riveting story of a women who knows her destiny and never gives up. Dana Kline's writing makes you feel every emotion deeply and twists and turns in the story are ones you would never expect. I didn't want to put the book to end as I felt like I was saying goodbye to my friend. You will truly love this book"
