Stripped

Declan Murphy has just made his big career move, going from little-known European cinema to Hollywood blockbuster awards-bait in the blink of an eye. One actor's highly public arrest for possession of narcotics is another actor's lucky break, right? Declan's eye is on the prize, and no one will keep him from proving to the producers that he's a consummate industry professional. No one, that is, except Fiona O'Brien. After a time in the spotlight that nearly destroyed her, Fiona wants nothing more than to fade into the background and do her job as part of the studio's hair-and-makeup team. The last thing she needs is a hotshot actor with a panty-melting Irish accent and killer smile messing up her careful plans. There's nothing careful about the immediate attraction between Declan and Fiona, and soon that initial spark of lust is sizzling out of control. But when things get complicated behind the scenes, they'll have to decide if their movie magic should stay on set...or if their love can survive away from the silver screen. *** The trade paperback edition of STRIPPED includes bonus novella SPARKED, Sadie and Ryan's story Ten years ago, Sadie Bower and Ryan Young met on a snowy night on a train to London, two young people still finding their places in the world. Now she's an international film star, he's the man behind the scenes holding the boom mic, and they couldn't be further apart...
