In this charming tale, a love for the ages leaps off the silver screen, as a famous movie star emerges from his shellโonce and for all.
ย
When Penelope Marsh last laid eyes on the gorgeous man standing before her, Richard Creighton had been a skinny nerd with glasses. Now heโs one of the most popular actors in the world. The only reason heโs back in New Jersey is to play the lead in a period piece directed by Penelopeโs cousin. But Penelopeโs too old for a schoolgirl crushโespecially when the crush in question is a sexy Hollywood hunk.
ย
Still sometimes shocked to be the object of a pretty womanโs desire, Richard is most comfortable with the cameras rolling, hiding behind the mask of his carefully crafted characters. Penelopeโs presence on the set brings back memories of his painfully shy childhoodโand yet heโs powerfully drawn to the willowy schoolteacher with the long legs and vivid blue eyes. Most celebrity romances must weather promiscuous starlets and invasive paparazzi, but Richard faces a different challenge altogether: proving that heโs come into his own since he was a kidโnot to Penelope, but to himself.
