Stories from Candyland / Candy Spelling.

Spelling, Candy. (Author).

Summary:

Carole Gene Marer spent her girlhood dreaming of meeting Rock Hudson, but when she finally had the chance--on her second date with her future husband, television mogul Aaron Spelling--she hid all night in the powder room. This book tells how Candy morphed from that quiet, insecure girl into a seemingly-confident, stylish trophy wife, mistress of the largest house in Los Angeles. The life she created for her family--her husband and children Tori and Randy--was fabulous, over-the-top, and often magical. Candy had a hand in some of the most beloved television shows of all time (she once stopped production on "Dynasty" because Krystle Carrington's engagement ring was not spectacular enough), has entertained half of Hollywood in epic fashion, and lives an enviable life. But under all the fun and showmanship lies a more interesting character, still wrestling with some of the insecurities of her ingénue self.--From publisher description.
