Hott Take: A Steamy Rush Creek Romantic Comedy

by Serena Bell

Overview

The hard part isn't acting like we're falling for each other. It's pretending we're not.

Shane: My grandfather's will has me between a rock and a Hott place. If I don't score a celebrity wedding, my sister will lose her wedding planning business—and our family's land. As a playboy movie star, I know Hollywood's ins and outs. But finding two celebrities in love is tougher than it looks.

Enter Ivy Scofield—the beautiful star of one of TV's most beloved failures. She's hiding from her past in Rush Creek, running a community theater for troubled kids. She needs my family's wedding barn to save her program. So we make a deal: I give her the barn—she gives me her hand in fake marriage. Lights, camera, action—and cut—right?

Not so fast. Planning our fake wedding is way more personal than I was expecting. I'm learning Ivy's quirks, preferences, and pet peeves—and that's before I walk in on her enjoying my most infamous on-camera scene. Plus she's slowly peeling back my layers—the ones I've built up to protect myself. If someone doesn't do something soon, we might discover that the only thing fake about this wedding is the way we keep pushing each other away.

A spicy, movie star, marriage of convenience, fake relationship standalone romantic comedy set in the beloved small town of Rush Creek.
