A Kiss from Mr. Fitzgerald is a standalone novel by Natasha Lester. In the dazzling Manhattan of the roaring twenties, a world of gin, jazz, and newfound freedom, Evelyn Lockhart faces a tough choice. While women around her embrace makeup, shorter hemlines, and the right to vote and work, Evie is forbidden from following her true passion: becoming one of the first female doctors. Pursuing her dream means defying her competitive sister, Viola; her conservative parents; and Charlie, her childhood best friend and expected future husband.

To support herself through Columbia University’s medical school, Evie takes a bold step and auditions for the notorious late-night Ziegfeld Follies on Broadway. But landing the part might come at a cost—particularly to her budding romance with Thomas Whitman, an Upper East Side banker. As Evie stands at the crossroads between scandal and love, she must decide what truly matters in her life.

Her Mother’s Secret by Natasha Lester is a standalone novel. In 1918, England, Armistice Day should have brought peace to Leonora’s life. Instead of covertly crafting cosmetics in her father’s chemist shop for army nurses like her spirited Australian friend, Joan, Leo dreams of selling her products openly. But when the Spanish flu strikes her village and claims her father’s life, her plans are shattered. Determined to start anew, Leo boards a ship to New York City, where she crosses paths with the charming department store heir, Everett Forsyth. In Manhattan, Leo works tirelessly to make her cosmetics business a reality, but as a lone woman with limited means in a society that views makeup as scandalous, the odds are stacked against her.

By 1939, in New York City, Everett’s daughter, Alice, a talented ballerina, receives a mysterious letter offering her the chance to star in a series of advertisements for a cosmetics line. The opportunity could place her among icons like Zelda Fitzgerald, Josephine Baker, and Ginger Rogers. But when her parents quickly forbid her from accepting, Alice is left to wonder what secrets lie behind their refusal.
