Unscripted Love: A Steamy Small-Town Celebrity Romance

Sometimes you have to go off-script to find your true role in life ...


Carrie Anderson has always been the dutiful daughter.


Her sister left. Carrie stayed — finished the degree her parents chose, agreed to the job at her father's firm, and kept the peace by never asking for anything. At twenty-six she's still doing it. Still apologizing. Still hiding her own sister's wedding invitation from her parents like contraband.


Then she asks them for one thing and finds out precisely what their love has been contingent on all along.


Which is how Carrie arrives in Alpine Ridge with a master's in political science, no job, no plan, and a town that badly needs someone who understands how government actually works.


It's also how she ends up standing next to Evan Edwards.


Sixteen years as an action star and heartthrob, and Evan is tired. Tired of needing a clause in his contract that keeps him from being alone with a female costar. Tired of living one invented story away from being unemployable. He's come to the mountains for his brother's wedding and a few weeks of being nobody, and he did not expect the bride's little sister to be the most interesting person in the state.


Carrie has spent her whole life being what other people needed. Evan has spent his being what a hundred million strangers wanted.


Neither of them has the first idea who they are when nobody's watching. They're about to find out.
