Script for Romance... Stranded after an accident during a blizzard, Clare Thornton takes shelter at the mountain home of movie star Logan Longcross. She's far from welcome as the reclusive actor is convinced she's another adoring fan invading his privacy. Both Clare and Logan are determined she will leave as soon as the roads are clear. That is, until producer Marvin Hobbs shows up right behind the snow plow, convinced he'll find his wife, Janine, in Logan's arms. When Janine appears on cue, Clare is suddenly cast in the part of Logan's fiancée. Clare and Logan must give flawless performances, or the movie deal Logan and Marvin are negotiating will fall apart. Logan is a superb actor, leaving Clare breathless. But it was never in the script for her to fall in love... Category-length novel. (Originally published under the pen name Maxine Patrick).
