One doctor. One movie star.
One house.
One month until Christmas.
What could go wrong? Dr. Gwen Wright is having a not-so-merry Christmas.
For the month of December, she’s alone, house-sitting for her mother and new stepfather. Her surgically precise world gets a plot twist when Caleb Lawson—world-famous movie star on the run from the paparazzi and his secrets—crash lands in her kitchen.
Besides being a Hollywood heartthrob, Caleb is also her stepdad’s nephew. He thinks he has as much right to stay in the house as she does, but as far as Gwen’s concerned, she’s the landlord and he’s the squatter.
Forced to share the small space, Gwen is drawn to the moody celebrity.
Sure, sometimes he can be a Grinch, but when Caleb finally touches Gwen, it makes her jingle bells ring.
But the future looms like a foggy Christmas Eve. With no red-nosed reindeer to guide them, can Gwen and Caleb overcome their differences? After all, she’s ordinary, and he’s a star.
Falling in love is going to take a Christmas miracle.
Holiday Star is a swoon-inducing, page-turning, celebrity romance novel with the perfect blend of angst and tension. Read if you like enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, tons of chemistry, a touch of groveling, and happily ever after.
Perfect for fans of Emily Henry, Lucy Score, Tessa Bailey, and Sophie Lark.
