About this ebook

The series that readers are calling, "touching, funny, sweet and gut-wrenching all mixed together." By USA Today Bestselling Author, Elena Aitken!

Can love in the spotlight really have a chance to shine?

 

Playing the lead in the summer's hottest new show is a dream come true for Cal McCormick. It’s the big break he’s been waiting for after leaving his modeling career—and ex-girlfriend—behind in Australia. Things only get better after meeting the seriously cute and unassuming local real estate agent.

 

Milena Hill transformed her entire life by kicking her deadbeat boyfriend out and embarking on a new career. She’s ready to take on the world—or at least the town of Cedar Springs. The last thing she expects is to fall for an incredibly sexy movie star. Even more unexpected? He’s just as into her.

 

Caught up in a whirlwind romance is exciting, but dating a celebrity has its drawbacks, especially for a woman like Milena who hates the limelight. Enter Cal’s sexy co-star who shares a history with him that’s ripe for tabloid gossip, and things only get more complicated. How can Milena compete with a woman who is so unfairly gorgeous and as comfortable in the spotlight as Cal?

 

Cal must show Milena that living a life in the spotlight will only give her a chance to shine. But can Milena trust in a love that will turn her life upside down? And more importantly, can their new love withstand the pressures of stardom or is it nothing more than fresh gossip for the tabloids?

Ratings and reviews

I haven't read the previous books in this series and I am so sorry that I haven't because this book was awesome. I didn't feel lost in this story but I definitely want to know more about these characters as soon as possible!! Cal has returned home from Australia to star as his brother, Ian, in a new TV show. He isn't necessarily looking for love after being burned by and breaking up with his ex. When he runs into Milena, the attraction is instant and the pull to be with her is strong. Milena is finally gaining some self esteem after moving on from her horrible ex but doesn't quite believe model Cal is really interested in her. Their relationship is built on showing each other all of the amazing things about one another. Even though there are lots of actors in this story, there's a surprising lack of drama. I loved the instant connection between Cal and Milena and the supportiveness of both of their families. There has not been a single book by this author that I haven't enjoyed and this one is no exception. Once I started I wasn't able to put it down. I can't wait to go back and read the first two books so I can visit this family again. *This is my voluntary review of an advanced reader copy*

I loved reading One More Moment by Elena Aitken, as this is youngest brother, Cal’s story. Cal left his modeling career and ex-girlfriend in Australia to act as his brother Ian in Mr. Summer, the summer’s hottest new show. After meeting local real estate agent, Milena Hill, he is a goner, wanting to date her, kiss her, be with her. Milena transformed her life by getting healthy, kicking out her deadbeat, controlling boyfriend and starting a new career. The last thing she expects is to fall for the incredibly handsome Cal or for him to fall for her. She is not a fan of publicity or being in the tabloids and wonders if she can adapt to the life Cal holds. I truly enjoyed reading this book and had trouble putting this book down. Everytime I read one Ms. Aitken’s books I think she can’t write another better than this one, but she does. Each and every time. Ms. Aitken knows how to tell a wonderful story and makes me want to live in Cedar Springs. This is the third book in The McCormicks series, but each book is a standalone story. I am looking forward to the next book in this series and highly recommend this book to other readers. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

Another brilliant book in this series. I love the two different main characters, the tv star and the ordinary girl.....nothing ordinary about the chemistry these two share. Some small hurdles to get over before they can cement their relationship but love gets them through. I look forward to Declans story next.
