Rising Star
A Hollywood star and a dog sitter find an unlikely happy ending in this heartwarming forced-proximity romance.
Griffin Beach has it all: a smoking-hot bod, a house in the Hollywood Hills, and a starring film role that’s about to launch him into superstardom. The only thing he needs now is a dog sitter… The perfect solution appears in the form of Alice, a shy grad student who isn’t impressed by him but LOVES his dog. And hey, maybe Griffin can charm her into changing her mind about him. Alice Carlisle has her reasons for being wary of the womanizing actor. But since she’s about to be jobless and homeless, she can’t afford to reject Griffin’s offer to house-sit. She’ll just have to avoid him during the short time they’ll be sharing an address. Except Griffin isn’t so easy to ignore—especially when he’s making her laugh, cooking her late-night pancakes, or parading around in nothing but a towel. Attraction wasn’t supposed to be part of the arrangement, but the man behind that slick movie star smile is impossible to resist. Can Alice let her guard down and learn to trust again? And can Griffin stop trying to please everyone else long enough to realize Alice is the best thing that ever happened to him? Praise for Rising Star:“This story really has it all. It made me laugh out loud, it made me ache, made me smile blissfully and sometimes made me teary.” —Book Reader Addicts “The perfect mash-up of the friends to lovers and famous person/regular person tropes. I smiled like a fool through a good portion of the book, enjoying the banter, swoons and feels.” —KimberlyFaye Reads “Rising Star was a delightful romance and this story will definitely have you believing in Hollywood endings.” —Moonlight Rendezvous “Alice and Griffin's story was everything that I never knew I wanted. It's a delicious slow burn of a book and every single thing about the slow burn is spectacular.” —The Book Undercover |
