After her relationship publicly explodes, physiotherapist Lucy MacKinley decides that the mature way to handle it is to run away from home. But in the remote town she's fled to, she finds that British heartthrob Frederick Asherton is not only filming a movie in town, he's landed himself on her exam table. Frederick is charmed by Lucy's "adorkable" combination of shyness and spirit, and affection quickly turns to unstoppable desire. But when the relationship gets serious, can Lucy stand living in the public eye, even if Frederick gets down on his knee and begs her to share his life? **NOTE: This story is intended for readers 18+ as it contains sexual content intended for adult audiences** Another note: I started writing this story early in 2014. At that time, the movie mentioned in this story was still just a book. I thought I was writing about a movie that wasn't real. I'm leaving it, though, because there are some movie-related bits of my story that I really like. I hope you do too!

Josephine McMaster is pretty and smart, but very much a klutzy mess. Finally, at 26, she may have actually lost the dreaded 'McMaster the Disaster' nickname that has followed her around her whole life. Josie's quite content to be single, much to her mother's disappointment. So when a bizarre contest is announced where a socialite is holding a lottery to pick her bridesmaids (and rake in a little extra cash), she can't roll her eyes fast enough, even if it does mean meeting Jake Hall, her one and only movie star crush. Obviously, Josie doesn't enter the bridesmaid lottery, so you can imagine her surprise when her picture pops up among the winners, thanks to Mom.

Can Josie handle the pressure in the spotlight? Is it possible she might really have a chance with Jake Hall? And if she's busy worrying about all that, how in the heck is she going to keep 'McMaster the Disaster' from showing up in front of the entire world?
