It Happened One Fight by Maureen Lee Lenker 384 pp.
Joan Davis and Dash Howard have made a series of movies together, but can't seem to get along. Joan has to contend with a jealous Hollywood gossip columnist who found out something Joan herself doesn't know--Joan and Dash are married! It seems Dash (as a joke) sent Joan the marriage license from their movie (that was performed by a real minister) and Joan's assistant sent it off to city hall not knowing what it was. Now both Dash and Joan are off to Reno so they can get a quickie divorce while filming their latest film (written by Joan's assistant) and Joan can marry the man she's engaged to.
With elements of old Hollywood movies (including "It Happened One Night", "It Happened One Fight" is a cute romance. Anyone who is a Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Clark Gable, or Montgomery Clift/Rock Hudson fan will find the book thoroughly entertaining.
