Right on Cue

by Falon Ballard

336 pages · Paperback

Emmy Harper, daughter of two Hollywood legends, gave up acting as a teenager and became an Oscar-winning screenwriter. When the studio will only greenlight her new rom-com if she plays the lead herself, she reluctantly agrees. Then she learns her leading man is action star Grayson West, the one person she blames for the humiliating end of her acting career. Faking chemistry on set is easy; ignoring the real thing is not. A fast, feisty Hollywood romance.
