She came home to save her father's house. She didn't expect to find a movie star in her bathroom.
Clancy Lambert left Brinkerton, Michigan, years ago and built a quiet life far from home-one where even her writing goes out under a pen name. She's good at keeping the world at arm's length. She's had to be.
But when a mortgage notice threatens her father's house-and her father's time is running short-Clancy has no choice but to go back and face the town, the past, and the man she never made peace with.
What she doesn't plan for is Jamie Callahan: A-list actor, Hollywood's most recognizable face, and-apparently-her father's tenant. He's spent his whole life being wanted for one thing: his fame. Clancy has no use for it, and no patience for the world that comes with it.
A broken doorknob. A Michigan winter. Two people with secrets they're not ready to share. The longer Clancy stays, the more the walls she's spent a lifetime building start to crack.
Perfect for readers who love:
- Small-town winter romance and coming-home stories
- Forced proximity and a slow-burn build
- A famous hero who falls first-for a heroine who has no use for his fame
- Heartfelt stories with real emotional stakes
- Clean and wholesome, closed-door romance (no explicit content)
Embracing the Role is the first book in The Northern Star Series-clean, swoony standalone romances set in Brinkerton, Michigan, each pairing a small-town heart with a larger-than-life love. Every book stands alone, with a guaranteed happily-ever-after.
