Paige
sauntered past tables of clinking silverware, murmurs and crunching
fresh bread. Her stomach rolled. Full or not, she may have to indulge
further. It'd been awhile since she had a dinner that tasted this
good. She
edged to a long table dressed in flowers and several punch bowls full
of pretty pink liquid. Picking a glass from the far end, Paige
reached for the ladle of the closest crystal bowl. "Please,
allow me." She
glanced up, hand hovering above the silver ladle. "I, uh, thank
you." Paige
held a cup as Grey Richards poured the punch. "You and your
friend were at the shoot today, right?" She
nodded. "Yes, for a little while. During the car chase." "I
remember. That's great. I love meeting my biggest fans." A
soft smile dressed her lips. "I can't say I'm your biggest fan.
I mean ... I ... I enjoy your movies, but ... I ..." The heat in
her cheeks burned her flustered nerves. "I'm sorry, I ... "
She took a sip of the punch. A polite retreat was all she needed. Grey
laughed and tucked a hand in the tuxedo pants. The material flowed
and hung, obviously not a rental. A
man like him probably has a closet full of top of the line tuxedos,
she thought. She didn't want to venture a guess at the price tag that
came with each one. It was likely to be more than she'd make in a
lifetime at her job. "Honesty.
I like that. Don't get a lot of it where I come from." Paige
kept her gaze trained on the cup, heat spreading like wildfire. He
leaned back a little, gaze traveling up and down Paige's body, feet
to head, and back again. Paige shifted her weight to one foot, then
the other. "You're
uncomfortable around me." She
met the trademark gray-charcoal eyes. "I imagine you get that a
lot." Steady
in his stare, she felt like he was drinking her in. "What's your
name?"
She
drew in a steadying breath. "Paige Reed." "Paige
Reed." He watched her. "Paige Reed." He turned her
name in the smooth steely voice every fan knew well. "Pretty
name for a pretty lady." What
a line. But he doesn't need practice with lines, she bet. She took a
sip of punch, thankful the trumpeting thought didn't pass through her
lips. "Thank you."
"So,"
he said, taking a drink of punch, "what kind of movies do you
enjoy if you're not my biggest fan?" She
swallowed hard and coughed. "I didn't say I didn't like your
movies."
"No,
of course, you didn't." He turned to the punch and poured a
second cup, took a drink. "You wouldn't admit that much, would
you? I ask again, what are your favorite movies? I bet you're a
romance fan." "And
if I am?" He
chuckled, hand held up in retreat. "Nothing wrong with romance.
I've been looking at a couple scripts myself, but nothing's come my
way that has caught my attention.
What's your favorite, if you had to choose?"
"
Pride and Prejudice.
The one with Keira Knightley." He
nodded. "Historical romance, huh?" Her
turn to nod. "Good
film. Good cast. And I bet you're wondering what the actors are like
in real life?" She
smiled and shrugged. "No. You wouldn't tell me even if I were,
and really, I'm not a National Inquiry kind of girl anyway. They're
just people, who happen to make good movies. And you, you're just
another person who happens to make good movies." His
smile widened. "I like that. And yet, when I first came over
here, you struggled to talk to me. If I'm just another person, why
was that?" She
glanced over her shoulder to the table, where Lil stood, frozen and
slackjawed. Paige giggled. "Something
funny?" He glanced over her shoulder. "You're friend looks
like she might be a National Inquiry kind of girl." Paige
gritted her teeth. "My sister. She's a good person, who just
might be one of your biggest fans. Are you that callous towards all
your biggest fans?"
"Oh,
no. I didn't mean any offense." He shifted his weight. "I
should let you get back to your sister. It's been interesting talking
to you, Ms. Reed." He held out a hand. "Nice
talking to you, Mr. Richards." Paige shook his hand, eyes
widening as he brought the back of her hand to waiting lips, eyes
trained on her. Wait.
Men still do that? A
quick goodbye and he disappeared into the crowd at the front of the
room. Paige
stood, hand hanging in the air, staring at his retreating figure.
The Determined You
Only
You Book 2
Heroes
paint the big screen, but a violent opponent interferes with true
love, driving one actor to prove he's more than a script.
Easy-going
Lil Reed is like every red-blooded female would be: excited to meet
her first Hollywood A-lister. After all, Grey Richards is the talk of
the town. And she's the lucky one; his brother is marrying into her
family. But Lil quickly learns an age-old lesson: be careful what you
wish for. Grey is nothing like the charismatic and charming
characters he portrays. This heartthrob is surly, arrogant, and
completely closed off.
With
no patience for gossip-reading fan girls, Grey is far from interested
in the youngest Reed sister. And a guy like Grey would never date
outside the elite Hollywood circles. That would be career
suicide.
However,
when there's a threat against the Reed sisters, Grey feels compelled
to protect the spunky and adorable woman who somehow wiggled her way
into his heart. With danger closing in, Grey must save the sisters
and prove to Lil that there's more behind the glamour and glitz. But
will she ignore the fake tabloids for a chance at real love?

he needs is another woman in his life.
When

could possibly be his future. Now, it's up to him to confront his
demons and fight for the woman he wants. Can he bury his pain and
