When the Stars Align
A fake dating, movie star romance
Loving a Star
When the Stars Align Book 1
by Emery Cruz
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Pretend to date the broody, ridiculously handsome movie star while writing the score for his film… It’s a great gig until we score in other ways.
In my teens, Ethan Stone was one of the biggest stars, and I had a huge crush on him. Until a decade later, while I’m standing next to him on a movie set and he opens his mouth. What a jerk!
Luckily, I’m here to write and perform the songs for the movie. So I don’t have to work with him at all.
That is until the director and Ethan’s agent ask me to fake date him to generate some tabloid gossip about the movie.
I’d rather shower naked with a hungry bear.
But I’ve made a promise to myself, so I need to see this project to the end. And if I play this right, I might just be able to do that and get the hell out of this selfish, backstabbing industry.
But Ethan has a secret, and I’ve just fallen in love…

Unlucky in Love
When the Stars Align Book 2
Dating your childhood idol is never a good idea. That doesn’t mean I won’t do it.
When my client auditions for the role of a lifetime, I cross paths with the casting director—former teenage bad boy Joey Radnor all grown up and even more delicious than I remember. But he’s also broody, rude, and self-centered. I want to run when he asks me out, but I can’t tick off the guy in charge of hiring my client.
Our date is even worse than I expected, and once it’s over, I ignore him rather than admit I can’t stand the man I spent most of my teenage years drooling over. But when he cuts my client from the roster, my job and reputation are on the line. Meeting him face to face again is a bad idea. We’re oil and water. We don’t mix.
But when I look into those gorgeous eyes, I know we can beat the odds…if we don’t kill each other first.
Love in the Spotlight
When the Stars Align Book 3
I didn’t start the conversation with Teddy, but now all I want is for it to continue.
Ready to leave modeling behind, I strut into an A-lister event to pitch my cosmetics line. Investors are swarming until a self-absorbed movie star barges in and asks me out. I’m dumbfounded when the investors scatter, but Teddy is good looking, famous, and most importantly, rich.
A few dates certainly couldn’t hurt.
Teddy’s agent thinks I’m bad news, but dating him is better publicity than modeling. When Teddy and I become closer, though, his agent makes him choose between me and his career. Hurt when he hesitates, I end it for him.
Depressed and alone, I cling to his fading spotlight and release my cosmetics line early. When sales explode, the press claims our relationship was a stunt to sell products, which was maybe true…at first.
When my personal life implodes, I realize the one solid thing in my life had been Teddy, and I’d let ambition ruin that.
He has no reason to take me back, but with the rest of my life in ruins, I have nothing left to lose.
