She wrote the rom-com script but didn’t expect to star in it or fall for her leading man. I’m thrilled when a studio options my Valentine’s rom-com script. But when the female star drops out and the filming schedule leaves no wiggle room, I’m forced to step into the leading lady role. Acting beside Grant Akerson is no hardship—he’s one of Hollywood’s silver fox leading men. Except the on-screen sparks between us don’t stay on screen. Am I just faking a romance for the cameras or falling for my leading man? The more I get to know Margorie, the harder I fall. Between our real-life awkward meet cute, a botched kissing scene, and this undeniable attraction, the line between acting and reality starts to blur. When did faking it become so real? Should Margorie and Grant stick to the script or follow their heart? My Accidental Leading Man is part of The Valentine's Midlife Meet Cute Series.
