Almost Famous
Penelope Morris was only eleven years-old when her father and older brother were killed in a car accident. Since then, she’s spent her life trying to escape by acting like someone else on stage. Now, at nineteen, being a professional actress is the only way Pen can escape the haunting memories of her past.
So when the filming of the latest nighttime soap infiltrates her little North Carolina coastal town, Pen is desperate to make it on set – and on screen. Through a coincidental meeting, Pen’s able to wrangle a walk-on spot in an upcoming episode. However, it’s not just the camera’s attention that she captures.
Bad-boy actor Jax Butler is taken by Pen from the moment she accidentally/on purpose dumps a pot of French Roast in his snotty co-star’s lap. Despite his rampant reputation as a ladies man, Pen can’t help but feel a little star struck – especially when Jax convinces the director to give her a recurring role on the show.
But in an unexpected turn of events, her brother’s former best friend, Grayson Evans, is also joining the cast of the show. Every time she looks in his eyes, she remembers the past – including the enormous crush she had as a child on an unsuspecting Grayson.
But when fame comes knocking, Pen has to decide – should she go with her dreams and pursue stardom? Or follow her heart and pursue love?
This New Adult romance is a sweet read - heavy on the Happily Ever After but the bedroom scenes stay behind closed doors.
(If you'd like to check out something a little more explicit, please check out any of Annie Kelly's contemporary romances: Reunited, Rekindled, and the upcoming Star Struck.)
