About FALLEN STAR
The second he walked
through the door, she could tell he was trouble.
Grace knows better than to fall for a Hollywood
bad boy like Scott Deacon. An arrogant movie star with a troubled past and a
big honking chip on his shoulder? No, thank you. He may be sex on wheels, but
beneath the charming facade he’s just another cocky jackass destined to make
her job more difficult.
Except...
The more time they spend together, the hotter the
fire between them burns. With every flirtatious smile and brush of his hand,
she feels her defenses crumbling.
She wants to hate him, but instead she’s in
danger of losing all control.

Read an Excerpt from FALLEN STAR
Tuesday they were shooting on
location in Jackson Square all day. The call time was two hours before dawn, so
they could wring every second of sunlight out of the day, and Grace could not
stop yawning on the transport van to the location.
“Wakey, wakey,” Scott said, leaning over
the back of his seat to shake a plastic tumbler filled with something thick and
green and disgusting-looking in front of her face.
“Ugh,” Grace grumbled. “Get that away
from me.” She couldn’t help but smile a little though, even through her
sleep-deprived crankiness.
An hour later, as the first streaks of
light were glimmering in the sky above the river, Scott showed up at the pop-up
tent where video village had been set up, and presented Grace with a white
paper bag and a tall styrofoam cup from Café du Monde.
“For me?” she asked, perking up
considerably. “Did you seriously walk over there and buy me coffee?” He didn’t
seem to have gotten anything for anyone else. Just her. Her brain filed this
information away to obsess over and analyze later, when he wasn’t standing two
feet away grinning at her.
“Café au lait,” Scott said smugly. “And
beignets.”
Grace narrowed her eyes at him in
suspicion. “Did you make one of the PAs do it?”
“As a matter of fact, I did it all by
myself. And I had to take a picture with the employees, so I hope you
appreciate it.”
“I do!” she said, beaming at him. “You’re
officially my favorite person today.”
He blinked at her, his smirk
fading into something else entirely. Whatever that expression on his face was,
it sent Grace’s stomach tumbling into a free fall. Rather than examine it more
closely, she focused her attention on the bag in her hand. Inside was a
mountain of powdered sugar, and buried beneath it were three pillowy squares of
fried dough. “Don’t inhale while you’re eating those,” Scott warned her.
“Not my first rodeo,” Grace told him,
excavating a beignet. “Want one?”
“Noooo.” He held up his hands in a
warding gesture. “I’m doing a water cut for that fight scene on Thursday.”
Right. He’d be shirtless, which meant the
Abs of Glory would be on full display. Grace found herself looking forward to
Thursday with a little more enthusiasm.
“Sucks for you,” she said, giving him a
taunting grin as she bit into a beignet.
His eyes homed in on her mouth with laser
beam focus. “That’s fine. I’ll just enjoy them vicariously by watching you
eat.”
“Does this get you off?” she asked archly
and took another bite.
Scott licked his lips. “Not gonna lie, it
kind of does.”
Grace couldn’t help laughing at his
retriever-staring-down-a-dog-treat expression, which led her to make the fatal
mistake of inhaling with the beignet in front of her mouth. Coughing sugar out
of her lungs, she clapped a hand over her mouth as a cloud of fine white powder
billowed out in front of her.
Scott sidestepped the powdered sugar
typhoon and patted her on the back, chuckling. “Told you not to inhale.”
