Publisher Description
Sometimes happily ever after arrives on its own magical schedule…
Devon Jacobs’s star is definitely in orbit. Despite the cancellation of her weekly sitcom, she lands a job writing for a television drama, then sells her Christmas script to the perfect producer. But her boyfriend, Ryan Roberts, is having no such luck. Down on himself and burning out from all the auditioning, his frustration puts a strain on their relationship, and suddenly they find themselves calling it quits.
A movie shoot in the holiday town of Leavenworth, Washington, is exactly the mental break Devon needs. Until their leading man quits and the producer replaces him with none other than Ryan. Finding the right level of professionalism isn’t as easy as it sounds, especially when this opportunity means everything to their careers—and it’s becoming more obvious with each passing day that neither one of them is successful in saying goodbye.
Can Devon and Ryan find a way to combine their dreams and tie a bow around their relationship—this time for keeps?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
An ambitious couple's relationship strains under the pressures of Hollywood in Wheatley's humdrum conclusion to her Fearless Fairytale series (after She Gets What She Deserves). Actor Ryan Roberts can't come to terms with his failing career while watching his screenwriter girlfriend's star rise and dumps her. Devon Jacobs is heartbroken over Ryan's abandonment—and devastated when, after the lead drops out of her forthcoming movie, Ryan proves the best option to step in. The two agree to keep things professional for the sake of their careers, but that doesn't make it any easier for Devon to watch Ryan spend so much time with his cute if talentless costar. It's a solid setup, but the repetitive misunderstandings and failures of communication between Ryan and Devon will have readers wondering if they're really meant to be. The pair waste a majority of what little time they do spend together destroying their relationship rather than working to salvage it. Centered on indecision, misplaced jealousy, and juvenile reactions, this proves a disappointing ending to the trilogy.
