Eighteen year old Paul is asked to help his mother with a sewing project. Everyone
knew that Paul bore a strong resemblance to his grandmother when she was young, but
when he lets his hair down and becomes his mom's dress model, they realize that he
truly was made in her Spit and Image.

Alex, a concert pianist, is engaged to Veronica, an up and coming opera singer, who
happens to be the granddaughter of one of the worlds most famous divas. When her
grandmother passes away and leaves her vast Berkshire estate to Veronica, she finds
a storage room with dozens of steamer trunks filled with her grandmother's touring
clothes from forty to sixty years ago, all of which fit Veronica beautifully.
Surprisingly, there are also some clothes that will fit Alex, as well. Alex is
dubious about wearing the clothes, but Veronica's enthusiasm gets the better of him.
A very different premise than my last story, but hopefully you will enjoy it.

Also, the day of his SRS approaches and that fills him with apprehension as well.
This is not the easy, happy-go-lightly life of a young, successful actress that
he had expected.

filming for the movie is underway, John faces the horrors of swim-suit shopping, Ed is
searching for the perfect engagement ring for Rose, John has a rare day away from
adults when he and his friends travel to the beach and, through all of this, it seems as
though John's relationship with his sister has not only healed thoroughly, but they have
grown much closer. That's a lot.

famous costars and a famous director adds new pressures and concerns. Meanwhile,
Ed and Rose are back in Massachusetts, blissfully ignorant of what has been going

unknown source. How can Bebe and friends persuade them not to make that evidence public?

now some decisions regarding what will happen after the gala need to be considered.

Skyler becomes more determined to win the Gala, especially after discovering that not all
of the contestants are nice. He joins Regina and Paula for their first modeling gig and then, of
course, life gets more complicated. P.S. There are no music links at the end of this chapter.
Only 2 new pieces are mentioned and they are fairly modern songs that are easily googled
if you don't know them.

Skyler has to make some decisions - should he resist his transformation or should he go all
in to try to win The Gala? Thank you for all the reviews and comments. I did understand that using
a real life political issue would not agree with everyone. I'm sorry if my point of view veers from
yours, but that is the nature of political discussion. At times, we must just agree to disagree.
