The world is in a state of war, but on the gilded streets of Fifth Avenue, New York, a different kind of battle is brewing. Elizabeth Arden has been New York's golden girl since her beauty salon opened its famous red door five years prior. Against all odds, she has built an empire. Enter Helena Rubinstein: ruthless, revolutionary, and the rival Elizabeth didn't bargain for. With both women determined to succeed, no matter the personal cost, a battle of beauty is born. And as the stakes increase, so do the methods: poaching employees, planting spies, copying products, hiring ex-husbands. But as each woman climbs higher, so too does what she stands to lose. Because the greater the height, the harder the fall.
In this stunning new novel, internationally bestselling author Gill Paul reveals the unknown history of cosmetic titans Elizabeth Arden and Helena Rubinstein and their infamous rivalry that spanned not only decades but also broken marriages, personal tragedies, and a world that was changing dramatically for women. Readers adore A Beautiful Rival: 'I knew absolutely nothing about the lives of the women behind the iconic products, or about the fierce competition between them, but, as she always does so wonderfully, Gill Paul has taken the known facts about their lives (her research is as meticulous as ever), added a dash of her extraordinary imagination, and woven a wonderful story—breathing life into her characters and transporting the reader into their fascinating world.' Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'A terrific read and a wonderful insight into these two giants of the beauty world. I was transfixed throughout. Highly recommend.' Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'This book cemented my thoughts that.
